This painting by Myriam Van Calster portrays a man and a woman facing each other in a soft and poetic atmosphere. Between the two figures appears a luminous heart, symbolizing connection, love, and emotional intimacy. The faces, delicately sketched in pastel tones blending pink, blue, beige, and orange, seem to merge into the painted material, creating a dreamlike and serene sensation.
The layering techniques, transparency effects, and textured surfaces give this contemporary artwork a sensitive and meditative dimension. The “drawn-painted” forms directly applied onto the canvas tell an intimate story where gaze and emotion take center stage. Through this colorful and expressive composition, Myriam Calster explores themes of human relationships, tenderness, and inner harmony.
This artwork belongs to a visual universe combining contemporary art, figurative painting, stylized faces, vibrant colors, and poetic abstraction.
