Item information

Description

Reclamation (Ontginning) by M. Bollen, mixed media (airbrush and drawing), Western Europe, late 20th century.
This work, titled Ontginning (Reclamation), depicts a meticulously ordered suburban garden scene rendered with striking technical precision. A rectangular lawn, neatly arranged garden furniture, and a modest garden shed are enclosed by a concrete fence, beyond which tall cornfields and flat agricultural land stretch into the distance.

Executed in a combination of airbrush and fine drawing, the image is smooth, controlled, and highly detailed, lending it an almost photographic clarity. Despite its realism, the scene conveys a sense of unease and emotional distance. The contrast between domestic order and vast cultivated land creates a subtly alienating atmosphere, aligning the work with late-20th-century conceptual realism. Dimensions Frame: Height 66 Width 82 cm. Visual: Height 43,5 Width 64 cm.
