“Stardust,” created by artist Peter Alexander in 1993, belongs to the Neo-Expressionism movement and exemplifies figurative genre. The artwork displays a captivating interplay of light and shadow, predominantly characterized by a series of radiant, circular points of light dispersed against a darker background. These points emanate a sense of depth and motion, suggesting a dynamic interplay between a tangible form and ethereal light. The blurred edges and soft gradients create an almost hypnotic visual effect, suggesting the evocative title, “Stardust.” The piece subtly invokes cosmic imagery, abstracted through the lens of modern expressionism.
