THE AWAKENING
PROJECT: Personal Work
YEAR: 2020
The Awakening is a celebration of love in its most expansive and universal form. Inspired by Aphrodite, the work presents love as an offering, an opening, and a state of becoming that exists beyond boundaries or hierarchy. A lush garden of intertwined flowers fills the composition, each bloom distinct yet inseparable from the whole, moving together in a quiet choreography of connection and embrace. The plants appear animated, as if responding to an inner pulse, symbolizing the many expressions of love and the natural desire to grow toward one another. Color and form flow across the surface, evoking attraction, tenderness, and mutual recognition. Through this living landscape, the work affirms acceptance and plurality, honoring all types of love as equal forces of beauty, vitality, and transformation.
