Quintessence (377)

This canvas blazes in an explosion of colour: vivid magentas, deep turquoises, and blazing golds. It resembles a miniature Big Bang, an incandescent matrix from which light bursts forth and spreads in luminous veins. White flecks, scattered like a shower of stars, heighten this sense of expansion, as if the universe had only just opened its eyes. The gaze is drawn into the contrasts: here, a shadowy, almost mysterious area; there, a brilliant effusion reminiscent of a supernova’s shattering. The organic shapes evoke both marine corals and celestial nebulae—a reminder that life repeats itself, in water as in the cosmos, under different guises but driven by the same breath. This painting completes the triptych in a blaze of glory: after the awakening of chaos and the emergence of seeds, here is the instant of revelation, the moment when the light multiplies, when galaxies take shape in a dance of fire and water. And what if this cosmic explosion were not merely the origin of stars, but also the symbol of every birth—this instant when a spark, be it divine or human, gives rise to a world of possibilities?
