Balustrades, arches and windows separate space in Ana Kapor’s paintings from reality. Kapor was born in Serbia but has lived in Italy since 1983 because she loves Italian paintings. In this work, in the background, there is also a typical Italian landscape, surrounded by an opening which makes it seem more distant, but also frames it and identifies it as a familiar element. In the foreground is a Fabbri jar containing a few marbles, and three Amarenas are perched on the windowsill as symbols. There are no people in the work, which is common in her paintings. Time is suspended but the viewer can imagine that somebody is due to come back, perhaps a child who loves making up games to play on his own.
