Conceptual Rebellion™ —
art that thinks in light and speaks in the dark.
ARTWORK
catch the wave. NOW
There is no perfect moment.
Only the one you take.
A wave of energy — silent and powerful at once.
Not water, but movement shaped; presence in color.
Every line, every layer, an impulse.
At the bottom: NOW — not an invitation, but a decision.
Above it, the phrase catch the wave — not advice, but reality.
When the light fades, the work begins to breathe.
The wave glows from within — a heartbeat of light.
Power. Calm. Certainty.
Catch the Wave._Now is a visual mantra:
For those who act while others wait.
What makes it unique: Integrated photoluminescence transforms each piece throughout the day.
By day
powerful 3D art in full color and form
By evening
subtle luminous accents shift the focus
By night
the central message glows – reduced to the essential, intensely tangible
Ride it.
Own it.
NOW.

Description
catch the wave. NOW is a visual tribute to the perfect moment — the intersection of motion, emotion, and decision.
A single monumental wave dominates the canvas. It is not water — it is energy, presence, and courage materialized. Within it, countless shades unfold: from radiant white to deep blue, from soft turquoise to the mystery of midnight tones. Each layer pulses with momentum, each brushstroke carries movement, strength, and life.
At the lower edge, three bold 3D letters spell NOW — rising from the surface like a command. Above them, the phrase catch the wave repeats, not as advice but as declaration. The work captures the essence of timing: there is no “later.” The only moment that exists — is now.
When darkness falls, the photoluminescent ink reveals its secret: the wave glows from within, transforming the artwork into a living pulse of light. It radiates optimism, power, and the calm certainty that the right moment never waits — it must be taken.
Meaning: The wave of life doesn’t arrive “someday.” You ride it now.
Ideal for spaces where vision and momentum meet — offices, creative studios, or places where ideas are set in motion.

Beyond the Canvas
Catch the wave_NOW is a surge of energy — a storm of color, motion, and intent.
A monumental wave fills the canvas, shimmering in a hundred shades of white, turquoise, and deep navy. Each brushstroke moves like water in motion — fluid, forceful, alive.
At the base, three dark 3D letters rise: NOW.
Above them, the command: Catch the wave.
No hesitation. No delay. It’s not an invitation — it’s a demand. Act. Move. Ride. The moment is now.
When night falls, the transformation begins.
Photoluminescent pigments ignite the wave from within, turning the surface into a living pulse of light. Silent. Expansive. As if revealing its true essence only in darkness: energy is here. Motion is here. Everything waits for you.
Catch the wave_NOW is more than a painting — it is momentum made visible.
A visual manifesto reminding us that the wave of life never repeats.
You either catch it — or you watch it disappear.

Details & Inspiration
AUTHENTICITY & ARCHIVING
Each work is a unique piece and part of a Cluster — a closed series of five. All artworks have been personally signed, numbered, and assigned an official K-NY code by Kiéra Nagy (K-NY). Every work is registered in the K-NY Archive and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.Reproductions or editions do not exist.
K-NY doesn’t produce – it releases.
Night Colors. Illumination in the Dark.
K-NY doesn’t sleep.
When the lights go out, the new colors wake up.
Charged by light, each piece glows for up to six hours – sometimes longer, sometimes stronger, always unexpected. Direct light, blacklight, or just the memory of the day: illumination turns the artwork into something else. A second face. A hidden truth.
By night, the canvas is no longer what it was by day. It stares back, whispers louder, challenges deeper.
No matter how long the glow lasts –
the experience is worth it. Pure magic.
Available Works
Not many — and never repeated.
Each piece is an autonomous statement: physical, luminous, absolute.
You don’t choose a K-NY.
It chooses you.
Cluster
K-NY doesn’t work in series.
Each cluster is a closed system —
five works, one message, one rebellion.
Once completed, it is sealed.
No additions. No edits. No return.
A cluster is not a collection.
It’s a manifesto in fragments.
Five perspectives. One truth.
At K-NY, irritation is never a mistake.
It marks the moment when thinking refuses obedience.
K-NY = Luxury with intelligence.
And a luminous wink.
Current collector value (2026):
from €15,000 – on request
