Brief Description:
The Journey is a profound, large-scale work capturing the essence of life’s path through a neo-Platonic lens, reflecting the ascent beyond the self-imposed limitations of ego. Inspired by the climb up Kilimanjaro, the monochrome palette echoes the spiritual awakening felt amidst nature’s grandeur. Each layer of the canvas represents the introspective and transformative process of breaking free from constraints, revealing a radiant path toward self-realization. The shimmering surface draws viewers into a space where emotions flow freely, symbolizing the timeless quest for inner liberation and balance. This piece invites reflection on the universal journey of overcoming obstacles, with each stroke and subtle sheen embodying the uplifting release found when one transcends personal boundaries and reclaims one's true essence.
