Red Tricycle by Dmitry Yuzefovich

About the Work

A red tricycle and green floor plant are set in a dilapidated room with wallpaper peeling from the wall, exposed dry wall screws, and a stained floor with a tipped over blue paint can. Nuancing the narrative of decay are the bulbous leaves of the well-tended plant and the anticipation of play signaled by the tricycle. Here, memory is laid bare and brought forward into the present with Dim Yuz's highly skilled tromp l'oeil technique.
