I was told once that my art would look more surreal without the figures. I disagree, but my backgrounds do enhance my paintings a lot, and they are just as important as the figures.

OBRAZ VIII (ZEN), 1975 by ZDZISŁAW BEKSIŃSKI

The painting features a dark, desolate landscape with a lone figure sitting in the foreground. The figure appears to be weak, with their hands hanging low as their arms seem to be bound. There is a sense of isolation and melancholy in the atmosphere of the painting.

The title, 'ZEN,' is a reference to the BUDDHIST philosophy of mindfulness and detachment. The figure in the painting seems to embody this idea, with their closed-off body language and solitary presence. The landscape also reflects a sense of detachment, with its barren and inhospitable appearance.

BEKSIŃSKI was known for his surreal and often dark paintings, and OBRAZ VIII (ZEN) is no exception. The use of deep, muted colors and dramatic lighting adds to the overall eerie atmosphere of the painting. The painting leaves the viewer with a sense of mystery and contemplation. Who is the figure in the foreground and what led them to this desolate place? Is the landscape a physical location or a representation of the figure's inner turmoil? These are questions that Beksiński leaves open for interpretation.
