Description
Sound of Taransay is a striking coastal study by Arie Vardi, inspired by the dramatic waters and rugged terrain of the Sound of Taransay, a marine passage just off the west coast of Harris in the Outer Hebrides. In this evocative print, Vardi captures the elemental power of sea meeting land, with sweeping brushstrokes that suggest the motion of wind-tossed waves, darkened skies, and shifting light. The composition creates a sense of movement and contemplation, conveying both the isolation and beauty that define the Sound of Taransay and its surrounding islands. Whether viewed up close or from a distance, Sound of Taransay reveals layered tonal contrasts and sculpted forms that speak to Vardi’s ability to balance emotional resonance with painterly technique.
Arie Vardi’s lifelong engagement with landscape and seascape stems from his deep appreciation of Scotland’s coastal regions. Born in Chile and trained in graphic design and printing in Jerusalem, he has lived in Scotland since 1991. His approach incorporates vivid colour, expressive form, and atmospheric nuance to create works that reflect the character of these powerful natural places.
