About
this Artwork
Elysium, No. 1 presents an abstract, impressionistic landscape of floating, cloud- or flower-like forms set against a blue canvas. The sombre tones evoke an ominous, mysterious atmosphere, reminiscent of themes explored in Norm Yip’s Visitation series and Vibratory Field. This piece reflects a more contemplative and grounded approach, likely influenced by the slower rhythm of life in Saskatchewan. The ethereal beauty of the aurora borealis, which Yip recently experienced, has also left its mark, subtly inspiring the painting’s sense of wonder and stillness.
