Description of the Artwork “Città in Fiamme”
In the stirring canvas of 'Città in Fiamme,' Constantin Roucault crafts a gripping narrative through his surreal depiction of a city and a ship, caught amidst a maelstrom of flames and turmoil. Objects suspended in mid-air and a palette steeped in contrasts evoke emotions of despair, awe, and curiosity. The specter of flames dancing against vintage patterns and walls imbued with the grunge of time, compels the viewer to ponder - what cataclysm befell this mystical city? This painting is not just a visual feast; it is an invitation to explore the depths of myth, memory, and the echoes of ancient stories.

Constantin Roucault, Switzerland
Constantin is a contemporary artist from Fribourg. His main medium is oil paint, which he greatly values for its versatility and depth. Additionally, he uses other techniques like acrylic, ink, charcoal, collage, and screen printing to add more depth and expression to his works. In his art, Constantin shows the contrast and harmony between the man-made world and nature. Some of his urban motifs with graphic lines and imaginative elements give the city environment a playful touch. In his abstract works, he explores the energy and movement of waves, inspired by the power of nature. Other works resemble a narrative journey full of hidden truths – like a labyrinth of mirrors where everyone faces their own desires, fears, and emotions.
