Description

This oil painting was made in 2021 on linen with an aluminum stretcher and comes in a black baking list. The size of the painting is 140 x 100 cm and has been finished with a matt varnish.

Within his own fantasy world, a little boy sits between his human, animal, and living environment toys. The political toys also have his attention – what kind of game is he going to play with the poor, lonely, or fleeing person? How does he deal with our animals and living environment? However, subjects that receive global attention within the One-Health framework are often denied or downplayed by the little boy. How does he deal with the core values of democracy and freedom within a chosen society? Does the little boy continue his fantasy world, or has he perhaps been influenced by both the green ball toy that represents nature, balance, harmony, and equilibrium, and the yellow ball toy that represents focus, purpose, happiness, warmth, joy, and a new beginning for everyone?

Only the little boy can give the answer.

One Health is a project that “combines the collaborative efforts of multiple disciplines working locally, nationally, and globally to achieve optimal health for people, animals, and our environment,” as defined by the One Health Initiative Task Force (OHITF).

Acrylic Glass Art Print

Dibond Acrylate is a decent name for the more famous Plexiglas. But what is it actually? With your photo behind plexiglass you get a specific gloss effect, combined with a surprising depth effect. Acrylic is a clear plastic sheet with a higher light transmission than glass. Acrylic is used in combination with a dibond carrier. It is available in matte or gloss and gives the photo optimal protection.

Specification

The photo panel is provided with a luxurious aluminum profile on the back and can be hung on the wall with a screw thumb (hooks). The rear profile provides stability and prevents panel warping. Because the profile is 2 centimeters thick, a floating effect of your artwork on the wall is created. We attach the profile around the back with which you can hang the panel on the wall.

The team consists of expert people who advised us about the choice of paper types, such as the fine art paper from Hahnemuhle which we use and the materials to stick prints on, such as dibond and aluminum.
