This oil on canvas painting by the artist Sako captures the power and beauty of a wave in full formation. The work features a swirling movement where the deep blue of the ocean blends with bursts of white, illustrating the foam and force of the water. The rich texture, achieved through a generous application of paint, gives a sense of depth and dynamism, reinforcing the vivid character of the scene.
What emerges is a sense of raw power and freedom, an invitation to contemplate the energy of the sea. The work evokes both the relentless power of the elements and the fleeting moment when the wave reaches its peak before breaking. The result is a vibrant and immersive atmosphere, where one can almost hear the roar of the water and feel the sea spray.
About the artist
Born in Montmartre in 1963, painting and writing have allowed Sako, whose real name is Serge Armagan, to put words to his pain. A painter for 40 years, but having always painted, he acknowledges that he is only just beginning to understand that the quest for excellence is a life's work and never ends. This humility, this quest for visual emotion that we offer to the gaze of others, are the guiding principles of his work.
