Quintessence (1114)

This painting unfolds like a fiery stage of the cosmic path: blazing reds and oranges dominate the space, crossed by blue and violet fragments rising like shards of stars. Cells tighten into glowing embers, paving the way with their burning light. One perceives here a heightened intensity, as if the stellar journey led to a trial by fire, an initiatory passage. Yet at the heart of this ardor remain touches of turquoise and white, like oases of freshness reminding us that balance is never lost. The whole vibrates like a cosmic forge, where raw matter becomes spiritual radiance. Quintessence is expressed here in the crossing: to accept fire in order to discover one’s own light within it. And if every burning stage of the path existed only to reveal the hidden gold within us?
