This original artwork “Going nowhere” was created by the contemporary Russian artist Polina Zhadko and is available for sale online.
Polina Zhadko’s painting “Going Nowhere” is a powerful and expressive abstract work in which the artist explores the themes of stagnation, internal deadlock, and the feeling of aimlessness that can overwhelm a person. Using a contrasting color palette, where bright, explosive colors collide with gloomy, dark tones, and a dense textural technique, she creates an atmosphere of tension, drama, and some hopelessness. It is not just an abstract pattern, but like a visual experience of a state when it seems that all efforts are in vain and moving forward is impossible.
At the center of the composition is a bright, pulsating spot, executed in orange, red, and yellow tones. It resembles an explosion, a flame, or a flower trying to break through the darkness. This central area seems to be a source of energy, but at the same time it is surrounded by gloom that seems to absorb it. The artist applies the paint thickly, creating a relief that emphasizes the intensity and dynamics of this part of the painting.
Dark blue, black, and gray brushstrokes diverge from the central spot, creating a feeling of a whirlwind, fog, or boundless emptiness. These dark tones contrast with the bright middle, emphasizing its isolation and the feeling that it is trapped. The brushstrokes here are more chaotic, but also have texture, conveying a sense of movement that, however, leads nowhere.
In the lower part of the painting is a white, textured form resembling an arrow, a pillar, or a path going forward. However, this form seems isolated, separated from the bright center and immersed in shadow.
This painting can be hung on the wall of your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel and will be a wonderful decoration for your interior. You can buy online the artwork “Going nowhere” measuring 53 x 46 cm with secure shipping to your location.
