Denis Sarazhin’s ‘Twinkle’ Series: A Captivating Exploration of Hand Portraits
The “Twinkle” series, crafted by the Ukrainian-born artist Denis Sarazhin, introduces an element of intimacy to the portrayal of hands. Notably, Sarazhin, who typically employs larger canvases, ventured into a different realm with this collection of paintings, specifically curated for the annual Arcadia Gallery exhibition, “Five and Under.”
Comprising seven distinct pieces, these artworks diverge from Sarazhin’s more intricate oeuvre, placing a heightened emphasis on the intricacies of the human hand. Each hand depicted in these paintings cradles a delicate rendering of a flower, imbuing these small-scale works with a sense of movement and profound emotional resonance, amplified by the rich and evocative color palette used in each piece.
