Story and context

46 x 126 cm oil and metallic acrylics on scroll paper fused to board

The Serpentine Scroll was live-painted by Canadian Artist Matt Vegh at Matt and Nathaniel Vegh's 2019 Exhibition at the Chengdu International Design and Creativity Week. Painted live, wet on wet, in front of a shoulder to shoulder crowd ten deep right up beside the painting table, there was no room for error and was completely done by palette knife and by feeling only.

It later sold at the CEO Art Auction at the Shanghai Bellagio for the 2nd highest hammer price of the evening ($35,000 USD equivalent) a testament to its visual impact and emotional resonance.
