Inspiration & Symbolism

“Thirst” begins not with paint, but with a scene.

 In front of an untouched white canvas, a glass of red wine is placed.

Within the space around it, two bodies -caught in intimate tension are reflected as shadows on the surface.

The glass becomes a symbol of thirst -

not only physical, but emotional:

a longing for closeness, touch, and connection.

 A female hand reaching toward a male body.

Movement, paused for a moment.

Gestures that speak not of action, but of state.

 The painting preserves this instant -

the silence and charged energy that exist just before touch.
