Midnight Bloom is an original acrylic painting auction lot by Italian artist Dario Moschetta, created as part of the Sunlight Blooms IV series and offered as a unique original artwork.
Set against a deep green, nocturnal background, the composition unfolds through dense brushwork and layered floral forms that emerge from darkness rather than light. Accents of yellow, red, blue and white punctuate the surface like sudden flashes, creating a tension between stillness and eruption.
Unlike a literal representation of flowers, the painting explores the idea of blooming as an inward, contained process. Gesture becomes slower and more deliberate, while color appears suspended, as if caught in a moment just before full expansion.
Midnight Bloom reflects a more introspective side of the Sunlight Blooms series, where growth is suggested through depth, accumulation and atmosphere rather than radiance. The result is a composition that feels immersive, intimate and quietly powerful.
This work is part of the ongoing Sunlight Blooms series. Collectors can also view the previous Sunlight Blooms III auction to explore the evolution of this body of work.
