Johnny Morant's painting "Origins" is a striking and abstract piece that seems to evoke the vastness and mystery of the universe. The painting is composed of layers of bold, swirling colors, which create a sense of movement and dynamism.
At the center of the painting, there is an astronaut immersed in nature. This artwork is part of the series 'Allegories of the past, present and future', which represents the mankind's capacity to meet challenges and face up to our future.
The astronaut seems to be surrounded by layers of colours, which seem to be in motion, as if swirling around the centre. The effect is both mesmerising and disorienting, evoking a sense of being lost in space.
The title of the painting, "Origins," adds to the sense of mystery and wonder that the painting evokes. It invites the viewer to contemplate the origins of the universe, the origins of life, and the nature of existence itself. The painting is both beautiful and thought-provoking, encouraging the viewer to consider the vastness and complexity of the world around us.
