All auctions / Contemporary Art / Le Yack - The Feathers Left Behind - Hand-signed


On the black rocks of a sunset coastline, a deserted body lies wrapped in an ivory shroud. Around him, white feathers and reed branches soak in a golden wax. Higher up, a young man with dark wings watches, his head tilted, his hand resting on the other’s shoulder. One recognizes the Icarus myth, but the painting refuses the spectacular fall: only silence afterward remains, the sea covering the feet, the sky fading on the horizon. It is a bedside piece of a mythology revised by academic painting. An image of mourning and tenderness, where the beauty of the body answers to that of the shore. A sunny and sensuous painting that smells of chlorine, salt, and the heat of the tiles. Characteristics of the work: Signature: Hand-signed by the artist in front.
