Curatorial Description:
The Ballerina in the Park captures the dreamlike solitude of a dancer caught between nature and abstraction. ArNoUx paints her with ghostly grace, her face emerging softly while her tutu dissolves into expressive strokes of white, yellow, and ash. The chaotic brushwork around her echoes the uncontrolled beauty of the outside world—trees, petals, motion, and silence.

This is not a performance, but a moment of stillness. Her posture is upright, but her gaze is distant. The park is alive around her, yet she remains detached, wrapped in her own ephemeral world. Through the lens of German Expressionism, ArNoUx evokes innocence, introspection, and poetic isolation.
