The organic forms in Lenkiewicz's, The Anatomy Lesson of Doctor Tulp, feature elements including gold, crystals and glass. With Jewel-like hues, refracted colour and iridescent light, this semi-hallucinatory artwork creates a relationship between surface and interiority which both embellish and obfuscate the original. In essence, this painting presents an alchemical reaction between the real and the imagined, intersecting the genres of history and the natural world to create an artwork that is both visually arresting and highly original. Embedded in this painting are gelatinous forms and deep-sea creatures that when fused with the original masterpiece produce a new and miraculous reincarnation.
