Lost City presents a fragmented urban landscape that emerges gradually from layers of mixed media on canvas. Rather than a clearly defined skyline, Vita Jansone constructs the suggestion of a city through texture, gesture, and colour, allowing buildings and reflections to appear almost as fleeting impressions.
The painting sits within an abstracted landscape and cityscape language, where structure is hinted at rather than outlined. Vertical forms rise and dissolve into the surrounding surface, while mirrored reflections below create a sense of symmetry that anchors the composition. The result is both dynamic and atmospheric, as if the city itself is suspended between memory and reality.
The palette is vibrant yet weathered, combining chalky whites and soft greys with bursts of yellow, coral, and deep red. These colours are layered and distressed, giving the surface a tactile quality that reinforces the idea of time and erosion. This is an original work, available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art and online, offering a striking balance between abstraction and the lingering presence of an imagined place.
