Harry Araten (1936–2001) "The Equilibrist"

Screenprint on paper. The composition presents a poetic, minimalist, and subtly lyrical atmosphere, featuring a tender, angelic or winged figure in white robes, moving forward while maintaining its balance on a thin rope suspended high above. The small figure holds two yellow flowers in its open hands and is flanked by two tiny insects or stylized creatures at the ends of the rope. The scene is defined by the canopies of leafless trees with sinuous trunks in shades of gray, rising toward a gently cloudy sky of subtle blue and pastel hues. Signed in pencil by the artist in the lower right corner "Araten" and numbered as a limited edition "148/200" in the lower left corner, it also features a blind stamp in the bottom corner of the paper.
