Mukhammaddiyor Muminov Boy with a bird, 2024 Oil on canvas 80 × 70 cm || 31 1/2 × 27 9/16 in
Description of artwork
At the center of the painting sits a solitary human figure with smooth, rounded forms and no distinct facial features. The figure is dressed in a light, short garment around the hips. They sit with their knees drawn to the chest and their head slightly tilted to the side. The pose appears contemplative and quiet. At the figure’s feet lies a small bird in grayish-brown tones. The rest of the space is filled with a vivid yellow color
“I dreamed of a bird trapped in our empty house, desperately trying to find a way out. It fluttered around, crashing into the walls. I could feel the breeze from its wings on my face. I opened a window… and the bird flew away”
