{"product_id":"australian-icon","title":"Australian Icon","description":"Australian Icon is a contemporary interpretation of one of Australia’s most recognisable animals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe kangaroo is placed at the centre of the composition and reduced to a series of strong geometric forms and colour planes. Rather than depicting the animal in a traditional realistic manner, I have explored its silhouette, movement and character through abstraction and simplified Cubist shapes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm ochres, terracotta, earthy browns, deep greens, navy and soft cream create a distinctly Australian palette, while the large circular form behind the kangaroo adds a sense of light and balance to the composition.\u003cbr\u003eThe surrounding shapes suggest landscape without becoming a traditional landscape scene, allowing the kangaroo itself to remain the main focus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe work is presented in a natural wooden frame, complementing the warm colours and tactile character of the painting.\u003cbr\u003eAn original contemporary Australian artwork combining wildlife, geometry and colour in a distinctive modern style\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid oklch(0.928 0.006 264.531); margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; --tw-space-y-reverse: 0; margin-block: 0px 5px; color: oklch(0.442 0.017 285.786); font-family: Lato, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'sans-serif';\"\u003eAcrylic, Canvas, Framed by Artist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid oklch(0.928 0.006 264.531); margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; color: oklch(0.442 0.017 285.786); font-family: Lato, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'sans-serif';\"\u003e28cm (W) x 28cm (H) x 5.5cm (D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid oklch(0.928 0.006 264.531); margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; color: oklch(0.442 0.017 285.786); font-family: Lato, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'sans-serif';\"\u003eSigned: front, back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vasily Kulchenko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50551318806714,"sku":"34","price":500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0036\/5445\/1289\/files\/SQKtvlCM9Q.jpg?v=1790581156","url":"https:\/\/www.gioia.com.au\/products\/australian-icon","provider":"Gioia Wall Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
