"Menagerie" is a vibrant and imaginative animal painting that draws influence from Naïve art (primitivism), creating a charming and somewhat simplified depiction of various creatures. The artist employs striking fluorescent paint on a Paper canvas, giving the artwork an electrifying glow. The use of Gouache adds a matte, opaque quality to the colors, enhancing the painting’s playful yet surreal atmosphere. The work's naïve style and vibrant palette evoke a sense of innocence, reminiscent of Surrealism in its dreamlike composition.
