Dream Fragments. City Waterfall. Day 977 by Artem Pogribnyy unites monumental architecture with the elemental force of nature in a strikingly surreal composition. Two stately façades rise like cliffs, framing a cascading waterfall that plunges into a pool below, crowned by a luminous rainbow. The juxtaposition of man-made stonework and natural power reflects Pogribnyy’s fascination with architectural romanticism, optical illusion, and the poetic balance between constructed order and untamed flow.

Executed in acrylic and oil, the work demonstrates the artist’s mastery of texture, light, and atmospheric depth. The warm tones of the buildings contrast with the translucent brilliance of water, creating a dreamlike harmony that feels both timeless and visionary. This large-format painting embodies Pogribnyy’s ability to transform familiar forms into metaphors of memory, imagination, and wonder.
