In questo dipinto ipnotizzante, Ed Schaap ci trasporta in un mondo onirico in cui città e villaggi diventano accessibili tramite l'uso di "Riksha". Queste entità surreali, raffigurate come veicoli quasi privi di attrito, con una sola ruota o basati su sfere, si muovono più velocemente del vento. I dettagli ricchi e intricati e gli elementi fantasiosi del dipinto creano un senso di mistero e meraviglia, invitando gli spettatori a immergersi nella narrazione fantastica in cui convergono l'ingegno umano e l'incanto mitologico. L'uso di design e decorazioni stravaganti eleva il tema mitologico, rendendo il dipinto un pezzo incantevole che stimola sia il pensiero che l'immaginazione.
My name is Ed Schaap, I was born in Sittard, Limburg, Netherlands in 1965. As a child, I already showed a penchant for fantasy and science fiction movies and series that were shown on television at the time. Especially around the time movies like Star Wars and Alien came out, I was fascinated and fascinated by this unknown world. As for the art that I create, I have to say that I have been influenced and inspired by certain artists and concept artists, but over time I have found my own way. The works that I create are, as a rule, subjects from history, myths and legends, as well as things from everyday life. I give my own vision. In the beginning I used an airbrush. At a certain point, I started to miss a few things in my work. While experimenting with the combination of brush and airbrush, I realized that the painterly effect of brushwork was the missing element in my work. With these two components together in my recent work I find the result satisfactory. Despite this result, I also started painting with oils. Here a completely new world opened up for me, for example, the colors obtained with oil paint are almost impossible to create with acrylic paint.
