The Fountain of Love is a 72 × 55 cm original acrylic painting, newly created in 2020 by Belmin Pilevneli.
The Story
A fountain of love, where intensity, heartbreaks and pain gets washed, "cleaned" and turns into nothing but pure love. While the fountain is depicted semi abstracted, it is possible to find details that refer to the architectural details of fountains in Istanbul -where the artist is from- that were built during the Ottoman Period. The idea here is to see the romantic relationships/feelings of the contemporary life and the past as a whole.
The Details
This is a painting made on handmade paper after the artist embossed it with an old press machine using the plates she created with laser machine. After the first step she painted on it using acrylics, ink and graphite. The idea is to bring traditional and contemporary techniques together, in order to reflect the idea behind the work better. This painting is sold unframed, but it's highly recommended to frame it with a custom made box frame, while the glass doesn't touch the embossed paper.
