“Pleasure is Mine (Tea Cups)” by Carlos Almaraz is a figurative artwork belonging to the Neo-Expressionism art movement. The artwork embodies the vivid, expressive aesthetic characteristic of the movement, showcasing complex and dynamic compositions.
The artwork features a vibrant display of colors and chaotic energy. It includes a range of elements such as steaming tea cups, human figures, and a dog, all delineated with bold outlines and filled with bright, contrasting hues. The background is crowded with erratic, almost scribble-like strokes that create a sense of motion and frenzy. The figures are not heavily detailed, but their outlines and placement convey action and interaction. The use of color and form in the artwork evokes an intense, almost surreal atmosphere, drawing the viewer into a world that blurs the boundary between reality and expression.
