"Shattered Connections" is a captivating square panel that combines the fluidity of acrylic painting with the tactile edginess ceramic mosaic, all on an agglomerate wood board. This piece captures the essence of a basketball positioned at the junction of the court lines.
The white lines of the basketball court are rendered using a mosaic of broken white ceramic tiles, creating a beautiful contrast between the painted agglomerated surface and the textured ceramic fragments. This innovative use of materials not only highlights the court's geometry but also adds a layer of depth and dimension to the artwork.
A special aspect of this piece is its collaborative creation involving the artist's family. Sofia and her 7-year-old son, Radu, contributed to the making of this artwork. This familial collaboration adds a personal touch and a deeper emotional resonance to the piece.
