Striking a balance between whimsy and wonder, “Elevated” by Henk Jan Sanderman captures the defiant grace of a young goat poised atop a jagged stone, as if nature had gifted it a pedestal. The tactile realism of the animal's textured coat contrasts with the smooth, geometric form beneath its feet, creating a dialogue between wild instinct and sculpted intent. With its downturned gaze and determined stance, the figure radiates both vulnerability and quiet triumph.
The composition seems to transcend gravity, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of persistence and elevation—both literal and metaphorical. Sanderman’s mastery in creating dimensional illusion blurs the boundary between painting and sculpture, as the goat appears to step forward from the canvas. This clever play with depth heightens the sense of immediacy, making the scene feel uncannily present.
“Elevated” is more than a study in animal form—it is a gentle yet powerful homage to the will to rise. It distills resilience into visual poetry, crafted with both playfulness and reverence. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
