In Maurisea, Montana once again places the eyes as the central focal point, creating a sensual work through the power of the gaze alone. The painting incorporates sand from Mauritius, mixed into the paint. The painting subject too, draws inspiration from Montana's visit to the island of Mauritius.
This piece is part of the Watergaze collection, where Montana paints her subjects immersed in water, each with a striking gaze that captivates and mesmerizes the viewer.
The painting is a one-of-a-kind, hand painted stripes painting by Montana Engels.
Special about the technique is that Montana invented this way of painting and that when looking at it up close it looks abstract while the further you move away from the painting, the MORE detailed it gets.
