“Metropolis II” is an artwork by Jacek Yerka, created within the surrealism art movement and categorized under the cityscape genre.
The artwork presents a fantastical urban landscape, executed in a detailed and imaginative manner characteristic of surrealism. It depicts a chaotic conglomeration of structures, seemingly composed of non-traditional building materials and elements from everyday life, which are haphazardly stacked and intertwined. The buildings appear to be constructed from a variety of door frames, windows, rooftops, and other household objects, creating an intricate and whimsical cityscape. The composition suggests a narrative of a cluttered, almost dystopian metropolis, blending reality with elements of fantasy, inviting viewers to explore and interpret its rich details. The overall palette and the quaintly anachronistic style contribute to the dream-like quality of the piece, emphasizing its surrealistic essence.
