The artwork, titled “Weeping Lighthouse,” was created by artist Kristoffer Zetterstrand in 2011. As a piece belonging to the Digital Art movement, the artwork measures 41 x 51 cm and falls under the figurative genre.
The artwork presents an intriguing juxtaposition of elements. In the foreground, a vibrant arrangement of white lilies rests on a wooden surface, their detailed petals and vibrant green leaves offering a touch of realism. Situated to the right of the floral arrangement is a miniature lighthouse, painted with red and white stripes, which emits a soft glow from its beacon. Surrounding the lighthouse are several stylized black teardrop shapes, which appear to be suspended mid-air, casting shadows on the light-colored curtain backdrop. The interplay between the realistic elements and the surreal, cartoon-like teardrops evokes a sense of juxtaposition and contemplation, characteristic of Zetterstrand’s artistic approach.
