“A Figure Witnessing the Orchestration of Time” is a figurative artwork created by David Lynch in 2009. This piece is associated with the Art Brut and Neo-Expressionism art movements.
The artwork presents a surreal scene that embodies Lynch’s distinctive style, characterized by raw, unrefined elements and expressive forms. It features a bizarre figure, seemingly orchestrating events within a poetic and cryptic environment. A prominent element is a pinecone, which the figure appears to be offering or affecting. The background incorporates text, reading “I burn Pinecone throw it in your house,” adding a layer of narrative and intrigue. The composition employs a palette of earthy tones and mixed media, aligning with the expressive and unconventional nature of both the Art Brut and Neo-Expressionism movements.
