Don't Speak Original Art by Andreas Claussen
Mixed Media Painting
Framed 98cm x 68cm
From Claussen's enigmatic "FLOOD" series, this painting presents another intimate moment between the astronaut and their pink flamingo float companion. Set against deep blue waters, the red-suited figure appears to be sharing a quiet moment with their inflatable friend, creating a poignant commentary on solitude and adaptation.
Claussen's masterful technique is evident in the textural brushwork that defines the spacesuit and the reflective quality of the helmet's visor. His careful attention to the sunlight's reflection and the contrast between the technical and whimsical elements creates a piece that perfectly balances environmental warning with touching solitude.
