Title: Melody of Rain Artist: Michael Cheval (Master of Absurdism)
Description:
In “Melody of Rain,” Michael Cheval composes a visual symphony of melancholy and memory. A stunning example of his “Absurdist” philosophy, this painting transforms a barren beach into a surreal theatrical stage, where the elements of nature and music are magically inverted.
The focal point is a solitary ballerina, draped in blue, seated on the dry sands. She appears lost in thought, perhaps resting after a performance or waiting for a cue that never comes. In her hand (or resting nearby), she holds a vintage gramophone. However, instead of playing sound, the horn “weeps” a stream of water—the “melody of rain”—symbolizing that for the artist, emotions are too fluid and heavy to be contained by mere notes.
The background offers a dreamlike contrast: the ocean waves behind her transform into ghostly, dancing ballerinas, performing the dance she cannot. Above, the sky is dotted with floating umbrellas, some inverted like ominous storm clouds, suggesting that in this world, protection and peril are two sides of the same coin. It is a poetic, introspective piece that speaks to the “unspoken burdens” of the soul.
