Solid state 2015

Eckart Hahn's "Solid state" (2015) depicts a toucan perched on a knotted rope against a plain background. The realistic, detailed style of the painting highlights the toucan's vibrant colors, emphasizing its unique features such as its large beak. The rope, knotted and coiled, adds an element of tension to the composition, perhaps suggesting themes of confinement or a delicate balance. This work exemplifies Hahn's exploration of animal subjects in relation to abstract forms.
