The Waves Original Artwork

The Waves is an original acrylic painting by artist Carlo Pavan inspired by the ballet Woolf Works, each brushstrokes come alive with texture and movement. Every piece is hand-painted directly onto luxurious 100% cotton rag Khadi paper, then mounted on A4 board ready to brighten any wall. 

This series of original textured acrylic artworks takes its title from the central recurring metaphor in Virginia Woolf’s book “The Waves”, where the ebb and flow of consciousness and human connection mirrors the cyclical rise and fall of ocean waves. Carlo Pavan creates individual unique art pieces (no two are the same), where the element of the ocean water takes centre stage, combining metallic blue undertones and textured titanium white foam.

“I’ve worked as a performer at sea for many years and the views of the ocean always fascinated and inspired me. The purity and force of the element of water. The instant connection between the rhythm of the tide and our heartbeats. ‘The blue that cures the human blues’, as I like to say. Rarely I felt such a connection with any other element in nature.”Carlo Pavan
