Description
In the attempt to express his idea on canvas the artist goes far from a realistic image of a cock. The irascibility and impertinence of the character are expressed with bold and large geometrical forms made up of ground in various shades and vibrant contrast hits of oil paint. Angularity and sharpness of the figure refer to the strife of such a character. Realistic ropes and the frame (on the edges of the artwork) symbolize a certain deterrent, which reinforces the artist’s idea. The metaphoric volumetric image of the egg-sphere-planet stimulates the perception on a cosmic scale. Thus, the artist aims to render the impression of cockiness through the image of a cock as an archetype.
