Young Tulip (colour insert from Abracadabra) 2020

"Young Tulip" (2020) by Pavlo Makov, is a large-scale painting that depicts a single tulip plant rising from a field of small, box-like objects. The plant's vibrant green leaves and bud contrast sharply with the muted browns and oranges of the surrounding landscape. The sky, painted in bright blues and whites, suggests a hopeful future. The image offers a symbolic representation of resilience and new life emerging from a bleak environment, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of hope and renewal.
