This original work «Golf» was created by contemporary Russian artist Agafya Belaya and is available for purchase online.
Agafya Belaya’s painting “Golf” is a vivid, expressive example of her signature surrealistic style, where familiar everyday elements are woven into a whimsical, theatrical setting. The title hints at a sport, yet the scene’s execution is far removed from manicured golf courses.
The action unfolds in an interior resembling a greenhouse or an oriental pavilion with columns and staircases framed by lush, fantastical vegetation in shades of white and aggressive pink. The floor is laid out in a complex mosaic pattern.
At the center are two ladies dressed in costumes seemingly inspired by the Renaissance or early Baroque era, but with a modern flair. On the left, a figure in a bright green top, red and black striped sleeves, and voluminous white breeches swings a club to hit a white ball lying on the floor. Her posture is dynamic and tense.
Next to her on the right, the second lady sits, gazing intently at the viewer. She wears a dark jabot and bright pink trousers. Her headpiece resembles whipped cream or a shell.
The surreal element is enhanced by the presence of a “retinue”: cats scurry across the floor—one sphinx-like cat watches warily, while another dark one slips between legs. Scattered throughout the space are whimsical golden vases and discarded shoes. From beneath the seated lady flows a scarlet ribbon, resembling lava or thick fabric, which wraps around objects like a living stream.
Belaya’s “Golf” is a game not about results, but about atmosphere. It is a game of power, eccentricity, and reimagining conventions. The artist transforms an ordinary sport into a ritual dance set against carnival decor, where every element serves to amplify the feeling of unreality and luxurious whimsy.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, home, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
