From Life, is an artwork belonging to Oleksandr Serdiuk’s collection.

From life. Fruits and flowers that lend themselves as subjects in an environment that could be defined as Still Life, but which in reality gives more the feeling of a life in the making. The vase, the bottle and the fruit bowl are contemporary reinterpretations of those still lifes so dear to the Italian painter Morandi of the mid-1900s. Here the freshness of the living elements distorts the normal vision of this painting. The discolored red that acts as a backdrop enlivens the whole scene even more, while the flowers are enhanced by a black cloth that falls behind them. It is Oleksander’s technique that is enhanced in this work, the objects fluctuate between a defined and a blurred one, which does not disturb the view, but offers a pleasant and modern feeling of déjà-vu.
