This original work, «Plums», was created by contemporary Russian artist Derun Ekaterina and is available for purchase online.
Ekaterina Derun’s painting «Plums» is an unusual still life that reinterprets the traditional depiction of fruit through the lens of geometric abstraction and post-cubism.
At the center of the composition is a group of large plums resting on a crumpled, possibly paper or fabric surface. Instead of depicting them as smooth and organic, the artist presents each plum as a multifaceted object. Each fruit seems to consist of numerous small triangular and polygonal planes painted in various shades of blue, purple, gray, and almost black. This creates a faceted effect, similar to precious stones, giving the fruits a structured appearance.
The interplay of light and shadow is emphasized by the facets: some planes show bright highlights, while others display deep shadows, which adds volume to the plums and makes them resemble crystals. Some plums have small red spots that may symbolize juiciness, damage, or serve as an element of color contrast.
The background of the painting is rendered in warm ochre and pale beige tones, creating a soft frame for the dark, structured fruits. The crumpled surface on which the plums lie also has a faceted appearance, echoing the overall style of the painting.
Derun’s «Plums» offers a fresh perspective on a familiar subject. The artist invites viewers not just to see the plums but to feel their form and volume through the prism of geometric analysis, transforming an ordinary fruit into a piece of contemporary art.
This painting can be hung on the wall of your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, becoming a beautiful decoration for your interior.
