About the artwork

"Landscape Memory" by Suardana Kacor (Acrylic on canvas, 120 x 150 cm, 2021) is a truly mesmerizing and intricate dreamscape. This large-scale painting weaves together disparate elements of flora, fauna, and architectural fragments into a dense, fantastical tapestry. Swirling patterns and a rich, dark color palette of purples, blues, and deep greens create a mysterious atmosphere, while vibrant bursts of textured coral-like forms and individual animals (cows, deer, birds) populate the scene. The artwork feels like a subconscious journey, where memories of various landscapes merge into a cohesive, yet surreal, vision. It’s a compelling invitation to explore the boundless possibilities of imagination and the interconnectedness of all life.
