About Awakening

The artwork titled “Awakening” is a creation of artist Eyvind Earle from the year 1981, developed in the United States. It is associated with the Magic Realism movement and is a portrait. This image vividly portrays a stylized female figure with a distinct color palette and artistic technique. The subject appears serene and introspective, with closed eyes and a gentle tilt of the head, giving the impression of a tranquil awakening or a moment of self-discovery. Her flowing hair is rendered with intricate line work that contrasts with the soft pastel shades of the background, which is sprinkled with what seem to be subtle pink leaves or petals. The use of stark black lines to outline the figure and the juxtaposition of rigid and fluid shapes create a visual harmony, echoing the magical realist intention to reveal the mysterious within the ordinary.
