This piece explores the relationship between cultural identity, traditional visual languages, and Western modernist abstraction. The work draws from the history of folklore and inherited artistic traditions to reflect on the ways cultural symbols carry social and collective memory.
Through the transformation of figurative forms into geometric structures, the painting examines the dialogue between ancient artistic references and contemporary visual culture. The shift from recognizable representation toward abstraction creates a space to consider how traditions evolve, are reinterpreted, and sometimes disrupted through cultural exchange.Try it!
