This sculptural painting is executed in foam clay with layered acrylic colors and enamel highlights on a fir-wood support; the technique—foam clay modelling, acrylic washes and enamel accents—is integral to the work’s tactile language and is visible across the surface. Foam clay provides the voluminous, clothlike folds while acrylic colors modulate light across the blue tones and enamel gives occasional luminous reflections. The materials foam clay, acrylic and enamel are used repeatedly to shape both volume and surface, reinforcing the work’s hybrid status between relief sculpture and painted object. Formally the composition reads as a draped, wave-like apparition that spills from a vertical plank of fir, its saturated blue tones set against the white mount. The piece occupies the threshold between garment, sea and thought: a wrapped blue mass that both conceals and gestures outward. Close looking reveals subtle modelling marks and enamel highlights; from a distance the work resolves as a single, calm swell. The repeated use of foam clay and acrylic emphasizes the correspondence between material process and pictorial effect—foam clay constructs the fold, acrylic animates the depth, and enamel punctuates focal moments of reflection.
