“Flight of Icarus” is an abstract representation of Icarus’ fateful flight in ancient Greek mythology. The colors and textures used in this piece represent the earth from above, creating a sense of awe and wonder at the world from a bird’s eye view. The image combines the confidence and daring of Icarus as he soars higher and higher into the sky, with the tragic melting of his wings that leads to his ultimate demise. The abstract nature allows you to interpret the piece in your own way, perhaps seeing the struggle between man’s ambition and the limitations of nature. The use of colors and textures create a sense of movement and energy that draws the eye and captures the imagination.
