About the artwork / The inspiration

The impressive ruins of Pompeii, as a static theme, contrast with the dynamic flight of the hawk hunting the pigeons.  The three strokes are not only different in color, but also show the timelapse.

Artistic Techniques & Materials

The three canvases form the triptych and give expression to the enormous space of time.  The sand structure gives the accent to the rough ruins of this historic place, which still inspires for this expression.
