30x42 cm ~ Painting, Oil, Pastel
"The Strength of the Nomadic Form" is a work where I explore the concepts of movement and transience through symbolic forms. A contemporary totem, solid and contemplative, contrasts with a nomadic figure drifting through space like a balloon in perfect balance, floating between opposing directions. Further to the right, a palm tree or similar structure seems to be in motion, supported by a hovering rock formation that takes the shape of a floating knife. This visual dialogue invites reflection on impermanence and the delicate balance between what remains and what inevitably transforms. I like to think of this painting as a metaphor for nomadic lightness, where everything is in constant flow and nothing is truly fixed.
