Diane Flick
Percival's Second Hypothesis
About this artwork
A monkey wearing white roller shoes balances upside down on an elephant, which carries a block of cheese on its leg. A full moon glows behind them, while fluffy clouds float above.
In this whimsical world, the laws of physics feel more like suggestions than strict rules. This delicate balance serves as a playful reflection on trust, interdependence, and the curious beliefs that hold our worlds together. Subtle changes in form and texture further blur the line between the familiar and the fantastical. Meticulously detailed yet charmingly absurd, the painting invites viewers to embrace the impossible and revel in its playful absurdity.
