Description of the Artwork “In the country”
This mesmerizing painting by Constantin Roucault captures the serene yet surreal essence of suburban life. A large, two-story house stands majestically with its white and blue hues against a warm-toned lawn, rendered with vivid brushwork that adds texture and movement. The sky, adorned with muted earth tones and round white spots like stars, casts a cosmic and dreamlike aura over the scene. The combination of realistic elements and impressionistic touches evokes a sense of quiet isolation and magical wonder, blending nostalgia with contemporary surrealism. This artwork invites viewers to explore the ordinary through an extraordinary lens.
Artwork in the interior
Constantin Roucault, Switzerland
Constantin Roucault, a contemporary Swiss artist who draws inspiration from the cubist representation of urban and industrial subjects found in the works of American painters Charles Sheeler, Charles Demuth, and, to some extent, Edward Hopper. This early influence propelled him towards embracing the artistic style. The city and nature, in their myriad forms, have remained enduring sources of inspiration for Constantin throughout his artistic journey. His artworks navigate the intersection of figurative and graphic styles, oscillating between abstraction and realism. Central to his creative process is the use of oil paint, a fundamental medium that brings his visions to life. In certain instances, Constantin incorporates diverse media and techniques, including acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing, to enhance the expressive depth of his creations. This versatile approach allows him to explore and push the boundaries of artistic representation, creating a body of work that resonates with both abstraction and the tangible reality of the subjects he portrays.
