#Tenebrism

tenebrism

Tenebrism is the Baroque art of stamping darkness onto canvas so that light emerges like a scream. Painters ruthlessly slate the background in pitch black, binding viewers with the unspoken command 'Focus here only'. As a result, white and black dance in a duel on the stage like actors vying for the spotlight. Darkness serves as insurance to highlight light, while light becomes the director that wields shadow as its prop. Viewers are swept onto a roller coaster of chiaroscuro, tasting the thrill of art between exhilaration and suffocation.
