Acrylic on canvas, diptych, 2 x 50 cm × 100 cm

The Dance of the Flamingos captures the elegance and rhythm of flamingos in motion, reimagined through my Giumetric style. Intersecting lines weave across the two canvases, generating long, poised forms that shift between abstraction and figuration. Planes of pink, coral, and black emerge against a soft blue ground, evoking both fragility and strength.

Here, movement becomes performance. The flamingos do not simply stand, they pose, bend, and extend with the grace of dancers, their gestures recalling the ritualised elegance of a courtesan’s dance. Each tilt of the head and lift of the leg is crystallised in geometry, yet alive with rhythm.

As a diptych, the work speaks in dualities: structure and spontaneity, stillness and flow, individuality and harmony. The birds are distilled into their essential forms, transformed into archetypes of beauty and ritual. Within the network of lines, the viewer encounters not just flamingos, but the choreography of nature itself, timeless, precise, and alluring.
