Original artwork description:

The painting "Beyond the Frames" from the "Solomon's Paradox" series, the second part titled "Escape," is a powerful visual manifesto that explores the theme of internal limitations and the attempt to break free from them. At the center of the composition is a white circle, which I refer to as a "bubble," symbolizing the narrowness of worldview and the restricted thinking of the central figure. The silhouette of a person, depicted in dark tones, represents forward movement, an attempt to escape these constraints imposed by society or personal fears. The concept of the painting resonates with Plato's philosophical reflections, particularly his "Allegory of the Cave," which highlights the issue of limited perception of reality.

This piece emerged from a dialogue with my Instagram audience. The psychoanalysis of their responses, along with my personal introspection on questions such as "What am I running from?" and "What fear compels me to flee?" is visualized in this series.

The painting is executed in a mixed technique of watercolor and graphic elements, creating a contrast between the soft color transitions of the background and the sharp black lines that define the boundaries the figure seeks to overcome. The left side of the painting emits cool blue tones, suggesting calmness, while the right side is filled with warm hues, conveying tension and movement. The middle of the work hints at future pieces in the series.

Minimalist and symbolic, the painting invites philosophical contemplation on personal barriers and the freedom of thought. In this creative period, I am driven to create artworks that serve not only as a complement to your interior but also as a stimulus for self-discovery. I see my mission as uniting spiritual meaning with material expression through art.
