VANTA - Sonnet

Sonnet 130x200cm Acrylic on canvas “Sonnet” is a dramatic diptych by VANTA, utilizing thick black paint on two canvases each measuring 130x100 cm for a total width of 200 cm. This artwork embodies a poetic interplay of chaos and form, where abstract strokes of black paint are swept across a stark white background, creating an intense visual dialogue. The application of paint is both heavy and deliberate, suggesting a narrative that unfolds across the two panels, much like the verses of a sonnet. The contrasting textures and the dynamic forms within each canvas engage in a visual rhythm, echoing the structured yet expressive form of the titular poem. Like VANTA’s other celebrated works represented by S-Gallery and featured on Artsy, “Sonnet” draws significant attention at art shows around the world. This piece is particularly impactful for its bold use of black and white, highlighting VANTA’s skill in manipulating paint to convey deep emotional and conceptual themes. The diptych format of “Sonnet” allows for a complex, layered approach to abstract art, where each canvas complements and challenges the other, inviting the viewer to explore the depth of interaction between the two pieces. “Sonnet” is a powerful exploration of abstract expression, offering a rich, textural experience that resonates with the transformative power of art. Shipping: The work is delivered without a frame (professional packaging, rolled in a tube). it can easily be restretched by a professional or on your own, this is also cheaper then the otherwise increased cost of shipping when sending paintings stretched The measurements indicated are those of the painting stretched and mounted on a frame (The actual measurements of the canvas are larger to allow it to be mounted on a frame 2-4 cm thick.
