MoMA response

This piece caught my eye, because of the contrasting, vibrant colors. The bright white of the flowers coupled with the contrasting red of the figure displays harmonious contrast; juxtapose. Also, juxtapose is displayed, because flowers traditionally symbolize peace and harmony. With the red, ominous, perplexed figure, an elegant story is told. This combination is juxtapose. This piece inspires me strictly due to the pleasing visual element of the two colors; almost hypnotizing.

This piece resinates with me, because it is a bed covered in paint, something I thought would not look interesting or beautiful. The contrast of the texture and vibrance of the fabric and paint is a great example of juxtapose. Although the two elements are rarely seen together, this art piece works exceptionally well to create something ambiguous yet dignified. This post inspires m because the two elements are so rarely coupled that I was surprised, yet very intrigued. It is interesting how harmonious such a random combination can be.
