Cutting Deeper (30 × 30 cm, oil on canvas, Thirty by Thirty series)
Richard Beerhorst’s Cutting Deeper gathers a halved apple pierced by a knife, a vintage razor, a spool of deep blue thread, and a reclining nude into a charged constellation. On a small round table, the everyday becomes symbolic: fruit as temptation and vitality, the blade as mortality and precision, thread as connection and repair, the nude as timeless beauty and vulnerability. This composition invites us to look beyond the surface, to see how intimacy, fragility, and desire weave through the fabric of daily life.
