An oversized eye rises up in the midst of surreal, fragmented architecture and becomes the central motif of this impressive work of art. Its iridescent colours and perfect symmetry inevitably cast a spell over the viewer. Surrounded by geometric shapes, round arches and crumbling walls, the eye is reminiscent of the all-seeing, omnipresent symbol that embodies surveillance as well as knowledge and control.
The background of the picture appears dystopian and mysterious, with distant clouds drifting across a barren landscape. But behind the eye, a modern, almost futuristic city is revealed, contrasting with the archaic elements of the foreground. The blue of the sky seems peaceful, but the hard edges of the surrounding structures, reminiscent of cement and metal, hint at a cold, technical world.
The jagged lines that cross the eye create an impression of fragility, as if the image is warning us of the fragility of seeing and knowing. The rust-brown tones blend harmoniously with the blue and grey tones, lending the work a melancholy depth. It remains open whether the eye is a gateway to another place or a silent guardian of the passing of time.
