Stylistically, the artwork establishes a powerful symmetry between the stormy, vortex-like dark navy sky occupying the upper half and the circular water reflections created by the overflowing river in the lower half; the dark horizontal band of silhouetted trees along the horizon, combined with thick, layered (impasto) palette knife strokes and a bright white-light blue fissure of light at the center, creates a deep spatial contrast. In terms of meaning, while romanticizing the uncanny yet monumental silence of the Dorset landscape post-storm, the work conveys the destructive power of nature alongside the purifying tranquility that follows, and the triumph of light over darkness through soft pink sunset reflections bleeding into the dark waters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"template":"","listivo_14":["Acrylic","Painting"],"listivo_18029":["Unframed"],"listivo_18153":[],"listivo_29992":[],"class_list":["post-18335","listivo_listing","type-listivo_listing","status-publish","hentry","listivo_14-acrylic","listivo_14-painting","listivo_18029-unframed"],"acf":[],"listivo_130":[],"listivo_345":{"url":"","embed":""},"listivo_145":["https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/artgallery-mockup-27.avif","https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Stur-in-flood-.jpg","https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Renkli-Modern-Cerceve-Mockup-Instagram-Gonderisi-1.oo_.png"],"listivo_344":[],"listivo_29823":[],"listivo_29822":["122.0cm"],"listivo_29821":["152.0cm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listings\/18335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listings"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/listivo_listing"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"listivo_14","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listivo_14?post=18335"},{"taxonomy":"listivo_18029","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listivo_18029?post=18335"},{"taxonomy":"listivo_18153","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listivo_18153?post=18335"},{"taxonomy":"listivo_29992","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artgallery.com.tr\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/listivo_29992?post=18335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
