Painting: Fish Market - Not out of Scales

This painting holds profound significance for me. Initially conceived as a standalone artwork, it also marks a significant conceptual milestone and serves as a preliminary study for my upcoming 3D project titled 'The Aquarium.' At times, I find myself pondering whether the fish depicted are truly lifeless. They seem to pulsate with vitality, resembling a lively school—perhaps mackerel—brimming with energy, despite—or perhaps because of—the crowded, messy, and disorienting scene. I eagerly anticipate witnessing the evolution of 'The Aquarium' project and how it encapsulates this dynamic essence.
