Relief

Extreme close-up of the mural: thick layers of paint in yellow, orange and blue, with dark lines and relief.
You cannot see this in any photo of the whole wall. Only when your nose is right up against it do you notice that the paint does not lie flat: it stands up, in edges and ridges, layer over layer. The wall has a skin. For the Love of God, the mural by Francis Sling at Landhuis Rondeklip, Curaçao, is a painting from afar and almost a sculpture up close. This photo was taken on 28 May 2025. On his old website this detail, together with two others, stood for the three evenings then provisionally planned for April 2026. The detail shows why you need to see a work like this in person: a photo is flat, the wall is not.

From very close: the paint on For the Love of God lies in layers, with relief.
