Hitchhiker 1990

"Hitchhiker" (1990), by contemporary painter Peter Doig, depicts a lone red semi-trailer truck driving across a vast, green field. The vehicle is dwarfed by the massive, stormy sky above. Doig's work often features isolated figures and vehicles in landscapes that evoke a sense of both familiarity and unease. The muted tones and hazy atmosphere create a dreamlike quality, inviting the viewer to contemplate the nature of memory and experience.
