Quintessence (200)

In this painting, the breath unfurls like a shifting flame crossing the waters of the cosmos. Gold and crimson entwine in an incandescent dance, evoking the very heart of a star in fusion. Around them, deep green and turquoise open up a space of fluidity, like a primordial sea carrying this eruption of fire. It seems the exhalation of a celestial heart, an inspiration transmuted into light, spreading and kindling matter. Vapoury whites settle like clouds, light veils that soften the violence of the blaze and hint at the respiration of the unseen. Everything appears to vibrate, as if each fragment of colour holds the echo of a primordial heartbeat. The universe then appears as a vast lung, alternating between inhalation and exhalation, expanding life to the rhythm of its sacred breath. And what if this fire within us, this beating heart, were merely the reverberation of the divine breath animating all things?
