La Concha no. 4 - 110x160 cm

La Concha is part of the series of 8 works by award-winning artist Kalle Johansson "Art by KMJ", uniquely created for Japandi Collection's "Art Selection".

From a distant ledge, the shadowed formations of the mountain appear with an impressive monumentality, their massive bodies varying in clarity depending on the subtle shifts of light and the sophisticated saturation of color. Between these majestic structures, the viewer glimpses a stream of water, where the artist has skillfully used a trowel and sander to give the surface of the wood fiberboard a dynamic and vibrant texture.

The color palette, dominated by warm tones of gray, gold, and beige, gently guides the eye across the landscape, capturing its changeability and depth. With great precision, the varying degrees of clarity in both the rock formations and the surrounding sky have been woven together through a combination of small and large brushstrokes, applied layers of water-based paint, Japanese putty tools, and subtle touches of spray paint. The result is a composition where every element works together to create a captivating depth, a place where the power of nature and the skill of the artist meet in perfect harmony.
