Still and Live: The Schrödinger Enigma

More about Still and Live: The Schrödinger Enigma

Two cats side by side,
One is real, one a shadow,
Truth bends in still life.

This surreal composition explores the paradox of existence through the contrast of a real cat and a mechanical bust. Set within a dreamlike still life, the scene plays with perception, identity, and the boundary between the living and the inanimate, echoing Schrödinger’s thought experiment.

Artistic Statement: Merging elements of surrealism and geometric abstraction, this piece evokes the paradox of presence and absence. The structured background contrasts with organic forms, while vibrant, unnatural lighting enhances its dreamlike quality. The color balance between warm and cool tones deepens the illusion of depth and mystery.

Influencing Artists: René Magritte, Giorgio de Chirico, Salvador Dalí, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger
