This contemporary artwork features a diptych of two visually striking images. The colors are muted, with shades of red, blue, and gray dominating the composition. The shapes are abstract, creating a sense of movement and fluidity across the panels. The overall impression is one of ethereal, almost dreamlike, quality.
The subject matter is ambiguous, with no clearly recognizable elements or symbols. However, the title "Diminishing Eternity" suggests a contemplation of the fleeting nature of time and existence.
The artistic style appears to be a blend of abstract expressionism and surrealism, with the artist employing techniques such as blurring and layering to create a sense of depth and mystery. The framing and presentation of the work also contribute to its contemplative and introspective nature.
In the context of contemporary art, this piece may be exploring themes of mortality, the human experience, or the nature of perception and reality. ...

Shuo Hao's painting is fully embodied and nourished by this double influence, taking a step aside from the traditional representations of myths in Western iconography. ...
