My own Icarus. On a deep black background, reds and yellows shoot upwards like a flight towards the sun, then sink into darker tones: the fall is already there.
In Bruegel's painting, the fall of Icarus is almost nothing, two legs in the sea that nobody notices. I wanted the moment just before, when daring and recklessness look the same, and the light pulls you in as much as it burns.
It belongs to my Colors in Freedom collection.
