The Story Behind "Still Point": A Sanctuary in Solitude Every masterpiece has a narrative, and "Still Point" is no exception. Ladan's vision for this painting stems from a deeply personal, yet universally relatable, experience: "In your journey, there is a point where you want to stay there and look at the view, and you block in this moment, and you remember it every time, especially when you are sad or desperate." This profound insight translates into a captivating scene of a 'bunch of trees in a hult' (bîshe), rendered with an emotional depth that draws the viewer into that cherished moment of pause. "Still Point" embodies that fleeting, perfect instant – a visual refuge you can return to, time and time again, offering solace and strength when life's path becomes challenging. It's a reminder that even amidst life's chaos, there exists a sacred, tranquil space to recentre and find peace.
Unveiling the Artistic Process: Ladan's Secret Ingredient "Still Point" is a masterpiece of innovation and traditional artistry. Ladan's unique approach to texture is what truly sets this original piece apart. The foundational layer of this artwork boasts a secret prime, meticulously crafted by Ladan herself. This proprietary ingredient is the genesis of the painting's distinctive, rich texture, providing an unparalleled tactile experience that elevates the visual journey. Over this extraordinary base, Ladan expertly applies layers of vibrant oil colour, building depth and atmosphere that bring the tranquil landscape to life.
But the innovation doesn't stop there. For the intricate depiction of the 'hult' of trees, Ladan employs a highly specialised technique using Fountain pens and inks. This unusual choice of medium allows for an exquisite level of detail, creating delicate lines and nuanced shading that capture the organic complexity of the trees. This fusion of secret textures, lush oil, and precise pen work culminates in an artwork that is both visually arresting and deeply personal. It's a testament to Ladan's mastery and her commitment to pushing the boundaries of contemporary art. When you acquire "Still Point," you're not just buying a painting; you're investing in a piece of artistic innovation and a segment of the artist's soul.
