This piece, titled Mother and Child, draws inspiration from the timeless grace of Byzantine iconography, particularly the portrayal of the Theotokos (Mother of God). The painting reinterprets this sacred theme with a contemporary abstract approach, emphasizing the intimate bond between mother and child through fluid, simplified forms and warm, glowing hues.
The overlapping planes of golden yellow and earthy tones create a luminous effect, evoking the spiritual warmth and protective embrace often associated with Byzantine icons. The curved, tender lines of the mother’s hands and the child’s face emphasize the nurturing connection, while the blue and green tones in the background hint at divine presence and the eternal nature of maternal love.
While rooted in tradition, the abstraction brings a modern sensibility to the work, allowing the viewer to connect to its universal themes of love, care, and devotion. This fusion of spiritual tradition and contemporary artistry celebrates the sacred and human aspects of motherhood
