Vibrant, bold and bursting with energy, this oil painting is an ode to the artist’s love of colour. We are immediately captivated by the rich display of pinks, purples and blues.

Amongst this world of vivid colour, we can see a carefully considered composition. Built up of horizontal and vertical lines, the composition takes the form of a subtle grid that guides our eye to give attention to different subjects around the canvas. The whole composition is punctuated by the zig-zag patterned table cloth that conveys a sense of raw energy and movement.

We can observe the artist's use of repetition and mirroring, for example through the depiction of two loosely symmetrical figures and flowers. These techniques bring balance and harmony to this expressive painting.

Rolf Gjedsted (1947–2022) was a respected Danish writer and artist. He was known for his expressive, colourful paintings, as well as his contributions to the magazine Superlove and his work producing shows on painters and authors such as Degas, Gauguin, Poe and Rimbaud. He exhibited throughout Denmark and most recently was part of a show with Wiliam Skotte Olsen at Galerie Knud Grothe in Copenhagen.
