Quintessence (1099)

A vivid red dominates the center of this painting, resembling a volcanic fissure or a star in the process of fusion. Surrounding it, waves of blue ripple like the deep sea or a starry sky, creating an endless frame. Orange spots evoke glowing corals or stars on the verge of birth. Thin white lines stretch across the canvas, reminiscent of the porous texture of reefs or the lacework of nebulae, connecting the areas of color and building bridges between water and fire, earth and space. At the bottom, a very dark blue dotted with points suggests phosphorescent jellyfish or a galaxy with countless arms. The eye lingers there, drawn in by repetition: each paint blot is a world, each world a blot, each blot a universe. This painting seems to be a place where matter both burns and renews itself simultaneously. And what if this fiery tumult were nothing more than the shared memory of the ocean and the stars, inscribed in the same primordial breath?
