All auctions / Contemporary Art / Enigma - Dancing with My Shadow


Dancing with My Shadow I spin toward the light while he lingers behind me, robed in absolute black, his skull-face patient as stone. My grey dress billows like smoke caught mid-breath, its luminous folds rendered in smooth, almost porcelain brushwork. On the small table beside him rests a skull on a silver dish - my other self, perhaps, already still. Behind us both, a painting fractures the wall into geometric fire: deep navy, bone white, and burning orange, geometric and indifferent. I keep dancing. I always keep dancing. -- Dimensions: 120 x 80 x 2.5 cm -- Mounting: Professionally hand-stretched on a wooden chassis. -- Framing: None (no external frame); painted edges ready for display. -- Medium: Premium artists' oil colors on fine canvas. -- Style: Psychological Surrealism with a smooth brush texture. -- Authentication: Signed 'Enigma' on reverse with title and year. -- Condition: Pristine; dispatched from studio-affiliated workshop. -- COA: Hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity included. -- Shipping: Custom protective packaging; Catawiki Smart Shipping with full tracking and insurance.

The artwork is a one-of-a-kind painting on canvas, painted entirely by hand. About the Artist Enigma is an Italian surrealist working across dream, disruption, and wit - never settling into one mood or one way of seeing. Some paintings are quiet and symbolic, others catch a moment coming apart mid-motion, others turn a playful, knowing eye on art history itself. What unites the work isn't a single style but a single instinct: reality treated as something soft enough to bend, fracture, or reimagine - rendered always in smooth, luminous brushwork and bold, contrasting color. Every canvas is one of a kind, never repeated.
