A dance of life (2025) 绘画 由 Yuliya Gündoğan (ostbiju_art)

This painting captivates with its dynamics and expression, as if it itself pulsates in the rhythm of a whirlwind dance. Two female figures, enclosed in a storm of colors and textures, move, merging with the nature around them.

The artist masterfully conveys the effect of rotation and lightness. A whirlwind of skirts, fluttering fabrics, rhythmic brushstrokes create a feeling of continuous movement, where the air is saturated with the energy of dance. The composition is built diagonally: raised arms, tilted heads, the lines of clothes lead the gaze along a spiral, luring into the center of this colorful whirlwind.

The color palette is saturated with warm, natural shades - golden, crimson, emerald and ochre brushstrokes resemble a landscape, dissolving the border between the human and the natural. The texture of the brushstrokes gives the canvas a special materiality: thick painting makes the women's outfits tangibly dense, and the space - filled with movement and air.

The painting resembles a hymn to women's power, tradition, and the triumph of the moment. This is not just a depiction of a dance - it is a story about life, its cyclicality, its pulsation. The female figures here do not just dance - they seem to dissolve in the elements themselves, becoming part of the eternal cycle of nature.

The artist invites the viewer not just to look, but to feel: the sound of skirts fluttering in dance, the rustle of the wind, the energy of living, vibrating matter.

It is an expressive, emotionally charged painting, executed in a bright impasto style, close to postimpressionism and fauvism.
