Michael Kvium2026
Short Story (IV)
Sold
Water Colour
25 x 25 cm.
In Short Story (IV), Michael Kvium depicts a bald figure in a yellow shirt holding a small, distorted figure above his head. Open mouths and exaggerated facial features lend the scene a theatrical and grotesque quality, while the deep reddish-brown background concentrates the composition into an intense field of colour. The ambiguous relationship between the two figures evokes ideas of power, reflection, and the individual’s relationship with the self. Kvium’s characteristic combination of humour, unease, and psychological tension emerges clearly within the intimate format.
