Wild Eden

Oil painting on canvas

This hybrid figure, motionless and frontal, is a symbolic self-portrait of inner calm. Neither entirely human nor wholly animal, it embodies a state of deep serenity, like a presence settled in a silent elsewhere. The horns, the flowers, and the rigid neck compose an equilibrium between organic gentleness and formal restraint. The gaze is fixed, almost neutral, yet it suggests an acceptance: that of what can no longer be controlled. This painting was born without any prior intention, like a tranquil apparition that came to replace the struggle.
