Ballerina 1996

"Ballerina," created in 1996 by Ivan Eyre, is a striking visual piece that utilizes bold silhouettes and vibrant color palettes. Two female figures, possibly ballerinas, are depicted in a dynamic pose against a dark background. Their forms are filled with a textured pattern of blue, red, and white, creating a sense of depth and movement. The use of stippling, a technique that involves dots to create shading, adds to the intricate texture of the artwork. The piece's contrasting colors and use of negative space, combined with the suggestive nature of the ballerinas' poses, create a powerful and evocative work.
