In this vibrant canvas, titled "Escaping from the darkness," Jan Keteleer gives the viewer an underwater perspective in which a man, dressed only in a swimsuit, makes his way to the calm sea surface. The water envelops him in a clear but deep azure hue, with rays of light breaking through the surface and appearing to form a path for the swimmer's return to the air. Without other souls nearby, the work communicates an intense sensation of being alone. Keteleer's expressionistic brushstrokes add a dynamic, almost dreamlike quality to the whole, where the mixing of colors enhances the sensation of movement and fluidity. The digital technique combined with the mounting on a wooden panel and the retro style referring to the 1950s emphasizes the timeless feeling of facing new challenges. This work raises questions about what awaits the man who strives for the surface - symbolic of the unknown future everyone faces when taking new steps in life.
