Studio Sale | Matthew Mifsud
27 JUNE 2022 - 11 JULY 2022Notes
The main shapes in the piece represent the two plants intertwining and growth. Circles represent the copper pots which actually house the plants. The colour palette is very muted, but it allows the vegetation to come to life through the aqua green striation and light tan white. Subtle touches of shadows give the piece a sense of three-dimensionality.
Matthew Mifsud is an award-winning artist and creative.
