About the artwork

This digital artwork depicts a seemingly mundane but intriguing scene where man and nature meet. At the centre of the image is a woman with blonde hair, dressed in a red jacket, blue trousers and grey trainers. She wears sunglasses and has her hands casually placed at her sides. Her posture exudes self-assurance and relaxation. Next to her is a modern sports bike, firmly parked on a narrow, light grey bike path that runs diagonally through the image.

To the right of the image, on the green grass next to the path, is a duck. It is a male mallard (woerd) with a glossy green head, white neck ring and chestnut brown breast. The duck is looking towards the woman, as if a moment of mutual awareness or wonder is taking place between man and animal.

The background consists of a clear blue sky without clouds and a sharp horizon line separating the green lawn from the sky. This simplistic and graphically clean style contributes to the modern, minimalist look of the work. The colours are bright and saturated, with a clear contrast between the red of the coat and the green of the grass and the duck.

The artwork plays with perspective and tessellation, raising questions about the relationship between humans, nature and technology (represented by the bicycle). The sculpture appears simple, but contains a subtle poetic tension that invites reflection.
