The artwork “Blue Steps (Fall from Grace)” by Chris Ofili, created in 2011, belongs to the Neo-Expressionism art movement and is categorized under the figurative genre.
The artwork predominantly features a deep blue color palette that envelops the entire scene, creating a mystical and somber atmosphere. Within the composition, faint outlines and figures emerge, indicating a complex and multi-layered narrative. Upon closer examination, one can discern the form of a central figure descending steps, potentially alluding to the concept of a fall from grace. Additionally, abstract shapes and forms, possibly depicting foliage and other elements, contribute to the enigmatic quality of the piece. The intricate interplay of light and shadow within the blue tones enhances the sense of depth and adds a profound emotional layer to the artwork.
