The artwork, titled “Bathing Nudes,” was created by the artist David Choe in 2018.
The artwork showcases a group of figures situated in water, depicted with vibrant and dynamic brushstrokes. The figures, partially submerged, are portrayed in a style that emphasizes abstract forms over realistic representation. The painting is filled with broad, energetic strokes of various colors, predominantly in the hues of yellow, blue, pink, and brown, giving the figures a fragmented and almost mosaic-like appearance. The water and the background possess a similarly vibrant play of colors, suggesting movement and reflecting the spontaneous and emotive touch characteristic of Choe’s style.
