HANDMADE ETERNITY

Original mixed media oil painting on canvas. A dancer at the backstage looks at a large origami swan floating on a lake of water lilies. The swan, an elegant symbol of purity, change, and beauty, here takes on a delicate and unique form made by hand – a symbol of eternity built from something simple. The moment captures the tension between the concrete, planned world of the stage and the freedom of imagination and wild nature. The gaze at the swan expresses a deep longing for innocence and inner connection, for the fulfillment of dreams that lie beyond what is visible to the eye. The desire to escape and be free.
