Kyiv Football 2015

Danil Nemirovsky made this painting, Kyiv Football, with bold colours and an interesting composition. Imagine how the painting came to be, shifting and emerging through intuition. I can sympathize with the artist and imagine what it might have been like to create the work. What might he have been thinking when he made it? The material aspects of the painting are of interest, with its flat texture and simple colour blocks shaping our experience of the painting and contributing to the emotional and intellectual resonance of the work. I'm drawn to how the colours are organised, contrasting the yellow of the player's shoes with the green grass. It seems like Danil is continuing an ongoing conversation with other artists, inspiring creativity, while embracing ambiguity.
