Abstract
"The Whirling Sun" is a vivid painting that exemplifies abstract art with its dynamic, swirling forms and intense colors. The composition evokes a sense of motion and energy, reminiscent of Art informel, emphasizing spontaneous brushwork and emotional expression. The central motif suggests a solar force, radiating outward in a whirl, symbolizing vitality and chaos.
