About The Artwork
The artwork "Goliath or Fighting Life" tells the story of the fight between David and Goliath. The biblical tale is exemplary for seemingly hopeless unequal power relations. If the weaker would resist, one assumes his defeat. But not in the story of David and Goliath. In the 1st Book of Samuel, we are told how the young shepherd David defeats the overpowering commander of the Philistines named Goliath in single combat with a small slingshot. The work shows the snapshot of the battle while throwing the slingshot. On the lower left, the brave David stands on a small unstable pedestal holding his inconspicuous weapon. Goliath, on the other hand, is large and centrally positioned in the work, standing on a stable hill.And yet, despite his apparent invincibility, Goliath is overthrown by David. The artwork was to be exhibited at the New York Art Expo in 2020.

Veronika Spleiss (born 1993) is a painter of hidden object canvases with their own philosophical stories. "The viewer seems to get lost in the overabundance of details in her paintings, which are located somewhere between comic and Kandinsky", as Jürgen Moises of the Süddeutsche Zeitung writes. The artist often uses abstract and geometric forms. Her painting palette resembles a rush of colour tones full of expressiveness, which in turn seem reduced within a work of art. With the colour and form described, her artworks show a confusion that makes us aware of the tension and diversity of life between order and chaos. Philosophically, the painter tries to take a look at all perspectives of everyday life. Veronika Spleiss is represented by renowned art galleries such as Galerie Klose, Grüne Zitadelle, singulart, and justBEE. Her "Wimmelbilder" can be found in private collections all over the world: in Japan, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria and the USA.
