Painted in oil on canvas, Bears + Bears + Bears showcases Ian Bertolucci’s fascination with repetition, surface, and visual rhythm through a grid-like arrangement of gummy bears rendered in hyperreal detail.
The work sits confidently within contemporary hyperrealism and pop art, where playful imagery meets painstaking technique. Each bear is individually articulated, with subtle variations in form, light, and translucency that prevent the composition from becoming mechanical. Instead, the repetition creates a meditative cadence across the canvas.
A vibrant colour palette animates the work, with jewel-like reds, blues, yellows, and greens set against a crisp white ground. Soft shadows anchor the forms, adding depth and realism. This original painting is a bold yet joyful exploration of abundance and perception and is available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art and online.
