Original artwork description:

The painting "Ribbons" is a dichotomous image that evokes ambiguous associations. At first glance, it's hard to tell if it's a chain-link fence, common in industrial areas, or the silky upholstery of a sofa. Decoration with ribbons suggests the upholstery of soft furniture that radiates comfort and ornamentation.

This visual contrast reflects the paradox of life: things are not always what they seem. In many cases, it is our perception that determines how we interpret a situation - with coldness and detachment or with warmth and acceptance.

ROMANTICIZATION SERIES

The "Romanticization" series is an artistic call to rediscover harmony and love in your own life by shifting your focus. Sometimes circumstances unfold beyond our control, leaving us powerless to change their course. Yet life is unique and unrepeatable, and every moment deserves to be filled with meaning and joy.

Romanticizing the everyday is a practice that helps cultivate inner peace, notice small pleasures, and appreciate the uniqueness of each moment. It brings a new sparkle to our daily lives, adorns them with warmth and tenderness, and invites us to embrace the present with love and gratitude.
