“The Burning Bush,” created by artist Janet Sobel in 1944, is an exemplary piece within the movements of Automatic Painting and Art Brut, embodying the abstract genre. The artwork features an intricate web of colors and patterns that seem to pulsate with an intense inner energy. Dominated by swirling, organic forms and vibrant hues, it delivers a sense of chaotic vitality and spontaneity. This complexity is characteristic of both Automatic Painting, which emphasizes unconscious creation, and Art Brut, which often highlights raw, unrefined artistic expression. The overlapping shapes and dynamic lines contribute to an overall impression of abstraction that invites viewers to delve into their own interpretations of the depicted imagery.
