Curatorial Note:
Campfire in the Forest captures a fleeting, almost mythical moment in an abstract forest setting. ArNoUx channels the essence of German Expressionism through a rich, textured palette of glowing yellows, deep blacks, burnt oranges, and icy turquoise hues. Within the layered brushstrokes, shapes emerge—suggestive of hidden cabins among dense woods and glowing figures gathered around a small, luminous fire.
The scene remains intentionally vague, a haunting landscape suspended between memory and dream. Light dances across the canvas, guiding the viewer through forest shadows, while the warm glow of the campfire draws focus, evoking themes of human connection, survival, and storytelling in the wild. ArNoUx invites viewers to imagine the unseen—those seated in the dark, those who live in the trees, and the stories whispered by firelight.
The abstracted nature of the work encourages a personal, emotional interpretation, grounded in mood and mystery rather than literal narrative.
