About Jan
"A hundred-year-old piano placed in my childhood room developed a strong sense for harmony in me and apparently started my longing for art. Today, the main driver for my own creations is the fight between harmony and chaos, the search for the ultimate equilibrium."

Serpentine Symmetry: The Whisperer

Geometry and nature intertwine - where the graceful curves of a serpent meet the precision of interconnected circles in an oil painting. In "Serpentine Symmetry: The Whisperer," you are invited you to delve into the depths of this captivating oil painting, where form and fluidity converge in a mesmerizing dance upon a smaller canvas.

Against a backdrop of deep black, an inquisitive green snake emerges, its sleek body composed of interconnecting circles that weave and intertwine to form a harmonious whole. Each circle, meticulously placed, contributes to the serpentine form, creating a sense of dynamic movement frozen in time.

As the eye traverses the canvas, two slim golden lines draw attention, adding a touch of opulence to the composition. One line serves as a resting place for the serpent, its body elegantly draped across the gilded path of light. The second line intersects with a golden eye, a focal point that beckons the viewer into the snake's enigmatic gaze.

But it is the subtle details that truly elevate this piece. The snake's tongue, delicately protruding from its mouth, extends downward to connect with one of the golden lines, creating a symbolic link between the creature and its environment. Here lies a profound symbolism, echoing the serpent's pivotal role in the biblical narrative of Eden.

The "Serpentine Symmetry: The Whisperer," aims to challenge perceptions and evoke contemplation on the interplay between order and chaos, symmetry and asymmetry, as inspired by the age-old tale of the serpent in the biblical narrative. Much like the serpent in Eden, "The Whisperer" invites viewers to consider the complexities of temptation, knowledge, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness. It is a testament to the exploration of geometrical deconstruction as a vehicle for artistic expression, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a world where imagination knows no bounds.

Experience the transformative power of "Serpentine Symmetry: The Whisperer" and add a touch of intrigue to your space with this stunning work of art.
