Object description & interpretation
Printed on a mug, this painting “Peonies” by Korean artist Misun Kim features an imaginative depiction of a vase with a variety of flowers and leaves, all painted in a typical Asian style. The first thing we notice is the bright red peonies, which almost magnetically attract the viewer's gaze. Compared to the other colors, the red stands out the most, followed by the yellow and pink flowers. It is a veritable sea of color surrounded by brown bushes and green leaves. The other plants frame the flowers and make them stand out due to their inconspicuous nature. Following the stems of the plants we finally arrive at the “vase”. It is not a classic ceramic, but seems to be a natural stone, which, however, appears in the most curious shapes and is strangely curved and deformed. The rock is somewhat reminiscent of volcanic rock due to its flowing shapes and dark color, but perhaps it is also the product of our artist's imagination.
