With certificate signed by the artist - Pile of pure New Zealand wool and linen // The Flying #2 by Ilja Kabakov, created in 2006, is a large tapestry composed of four panels, each depicting scenes of surreal flight over urban and rural landscapes. Rendered in sepia tones, the panels include figures floating and interacting with their surroundings in unexpected ways: a man lying horizontally above a cityscape, two people gripping a large branch as they are lifted into the sky, and scenes of people scattered in mid-air over a sprawling landscape. The final panel shows a group gathering in a room overlooking the city, suggesting themes of community and shared imagination. This tapestry explores Kabakov’s recurring themes of escapism, human aspiration, and the desire to transcend physical boundaries. The muted colors and fine texture evoke a sense of nostalgia and contemplation, inviting viewers to reflect on the whimsical yet poignant nature of the scenes.
