The story behind
In this painting, bursts of red, gold, and purple emerge like the sacred sails of a celestial vessel. The work evokes Ninigi, figure of Japanese mythology, descendant of the gods, who descended from the heavens to establish the imperial lineage. Here, his craft seems to cut through the clear azure, linking the realm of divinities to that of humankind. The painterly gestures convey the swiftness of a divine mission: to unite earth and sky, human and sacred. The shimmering light that traverses the canvas carries the promise of a new order, imbued with purity and harmony. Each movement of color recalls the breath of destiny, as though inviting us to follow the unseen path of the ancestors. Ninigi’s vessel does not sail only in myth; it also navigates within our imagination, reminding us that we all carry a spark of celestial origin. Are we ready to welcome, too, that divine part which binds us to the beginning?
