"Adamastor" stands as a powerful dialogue between nature’s vastness and human emotion. Inspired by the mythical guardian of the sea, the work unfolds across four meters of textured blues, greys, and whites — a horizon of strength and movement. The painting evokes both energy and contemplation, capturing the dual essence of resilience and calm.

Conceived for an architectural space within a five-star hotel, Adamastor transforms the wall into a living landscape — a statement of presence and grandeur that connects the viewer to the elemental rhythm of water, wind, and time.

"Adamastor"

"Blue Solace" was created for a luxury suite  — a sanctuary where the owners experience stillness and refinement. Spanning three meters, the work unfolds in soft transitions of blue and white, echoing the horizon between sea and sky. Layers of sand, gesso, and pigment build a subtle texture that captures light and quiet movement, offering both visual depth and emotional calm.

Designed to harmonize with elegant interiors, "Blue Solace" transforms the room into an atmosphere of balance and renewal — a living surface of tranquility that enhances the guest’s sense of space, serenity, and presence.

"Blue Solace N2"

This painting invites contemplation. It is not an image but an atmosphere — a place to linger, to feel the subtle vibration of stillness itself. Its luxury lies not in opulence, but in refinement — in the precision of its restraint, the elegance of its quiet tension, and the mastery with which color becomes silence made visible.

"Between 2 Silences" - In Situ

Between Two Silence
*(from the series Here, There, and Everywhere)

Between two realms of stillness, color breathes.
On the left, one Silence — layered blues, textured and deep — holds the trace of memory. Across it, the surface opens, lighter, touched by rose and violet — another silence, distant yet near.

A pause between worlds.
Where separation dissolves, and silence becomes the language of being.

"Where the Light Illuminates Itself", art of the Topography of Memory — Synchronicities Collection,  was born from a moment of profound synchronicity in Venice — a city where light seems to breathe, shimmer, and reflect its own soul. In that instant, something within the artist was also illuminated, igniting a vision that now flows through her work.
The painting invites viewers not merely to see but to feel — to witness what awakens within as light reveals itself across the canvas. Layers of luminosity and reflection intertwine, evoking both the physical radiance of Venice and the inner clarity of self-discovery. She invites collectors to join her evolving journey — one where art becomes both illumination and transformation.

"Where the Light Illuminates Itself"

"Old Chapters or New Beginnings", part of the "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities" Collection, unfolds through pure improvisation — a spontaneous act of discovery where shapes emerge like windows, each one a portal between past and possibility. The layered textures carry the gravity of memory, while the vibrant colors insist on renewal, echoing the artist’s question: Am I standing at the end of something, or at the beginning of everything? Rooted in visceral gesture and intuitive flow, the painting embodies rebellion and release — a process of unlearning control and reclaiming freedom after years within structured systems. Its raw energy strikes first through the body, before thought takes hold.

"Old Chapters or New Beginnings" invites viewers into that same liminal space — where endings dissolve into beginnings, and every mark becomes both closure and awakening.

"Old Chapters or New Beginings"

"Contrast and Flow", part of the "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities" Collection,  embodies the dialogue between chaos and calm — a dynamic balance that lies at the heart of existence. Created with acrylic, sand, and organic materials, the piece carries a tactile depth that mirrors the layered textures of emotion and experience. Vibrant hues collide and harmonize, their movement echoing the ebb and surge of life’s opposing forces — tension and release, structure and spontaneity, passion and serenity. Each gesture captures energy in motion, inviting viewers to feel rather than simply see. "Contrast and Flow" is both meditation and celebration — a vivid reminder that harmony is not the absence of conflict, but the art of letting both stillness and movement coexist in perfect rhythm.

"Contrast and Flow"

"River Deep", part of the "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities" Collection, “River Deep” transforms memory into movement — a living current of color, texture, and emotion. Layers of fiery orange and red surge through the composition like molten energy, counterbalanced by cooler passages of turquoise and violet that create eddies of introspection. The darker peripheries serve as quiet boundaries, holding the turbulence while amplifying its force.

Vertical forms emerge like fractured walls or submerged architectures, while delicate linear traces drift across the surface — veins of remembrance mapping the unseen routes through which memory flows.

In "River Deep", the act of remembering becomes immersion itself: unpredictable, fluid, and alive. The painting mirrors the human experience of memory as a river — one that erodes, reshapes, and renews the landscapes of the self.

"River Deep"

"Pathways", part of the "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities" Collection, ” emerged as a moment of complete surrender — a spontaneous gesture of intuition and freedom within the artist’s ongoing journey of becoming. Here, movement and color collide, opening portals of perception where energy seems to carve its own rhythm through the layered surface.

The composition pulses with life, tracing the invisible threads that link form and emptiness, memory and resonance. Each mark becomes an act of presence — a quiet conversation between chaos and stillness, instinct and awareness — echoing the artist’s pursuit of Jung’s vision of wholeness.

In "Pathways", abstraction becomes both map and meditation, reflecting Sonia’s evolution toward a language of authenticity and flow. The work invites collectors into this unfolding process — to witness and share in the growth of a powerful female voice within European contemporary abstraction.

"Pathways"

"Portals B", from the "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities" Collection,  embodies the fluid boundary between inner reflection and external form — a visual threshold where memory, emotion, and structure converge. Through bold gestural abstraction, the artist explores the act of crossing from the known into the intuitive, from order into flow. Layers of textured pigment and saturated warm tones evoke movement and depth, suggesting architectural traces that open into luminous spaces. The interplay between density and transparency reflects the passage of transformation — the moment when rigidity yields to energy and light.

In "Portals B", the feminine emerges not through representation but through rhythm, silence, and resilience. Each mark is both release and remembrance, a record of becoming. Within this portal, abstraction becomes a map of renewal — where control dissolves into intuition, and memory reveals its hidden alignments.

"Portals B"

"Portals C2", part of the Topography of Memory — Synchronicities"Collection, “Portals C2” is a visceral expression of transition — a passage between structure and surrender, memory and transformation. This work of gestural-structural abstraction balances raw, emotional spontaneity with formal precision. Thick textures, saturated warm tones, and layered contrasts evoke both urban intensity and inner stillness, mirroring the tension between the external world and the artist’s internal evolution. Rooted in the lineage of powerful women abstract artists, "Portals C2 channels lived experience into movement and color — a dialogue between discipline and intuition, control and flow. The feminine presence breathes quietly beneath the layers, revealed through endurance, repetition, and grace. As part of "Topography of Memory — Synchronicities", this painting becomes both map and mirror — tracing invisible alignments that bridge past and present.

"Portals C2"

"Vertical Gardens II", part of the "Spring 2025" Collection, “Vertical Gardens II” continues the artist’s exploration of nature’s dialogue with urban space — where the organic and the architectural merge in quiet equilibrium. Building upon the language of Vertical Gardens, this work delves deeper into the rhythm of growth and renewal, capturing how life reclaims walls, cracks, and forgotten corners with effortless grace. Textured layers of green, ochre, and blush rise upward in fluid motion, echoing both vines in ascent and the human desire to evolve. The composition breathes — structured yet free, deliberate yet instinctive.

"Vertical Gardens II" is a meditation on persistence and harmony — a reminder that even within boundaries, nature (and the spirit) will always find a way to bloom.

"Vertical Garden II"

"In Rose Season", part of the "Spring 2025" Collection, “In Rose Season” is an intimate meditation on spring’s sensual depth — a moment when nature shifts from wild openness to lush abundance. Inspired by the gardens and hedgerows of Portugal, the painting captures the opulent presence of roses in full bloom — their velvety reds, dusky pinks, and vivid violets layered into textured fields of color that feel almost tangible.
Here, cultivated roses entwine with untamed flora, blurring the boundary between control and chaos. The result is a visceral dialogue between softness and strength, fragility and resilience — a mirror of feminine complexity. In "Rose Season" embodies the emotional richness of the Spring Collection: a celebration of rootedness, transformation, and the quiet power of becoming through beauty, memory, and time.

Strengths Do Not Shout Loudly
by Sonia J. - featuring The Rain Doesn’t Cry

There is a strength that doesn’t perform — a quiet force that breathes beneath the surface.
In Strengths Do Not Shout Loudly, Sonia J. presents ten large-scale canvases from her collection The Rain Doesn’t Cry, where emotion becomes texture and silence turns into color.

Through layered acrylics, sand, and gesso, Sonia transforms inner storms into luminous surfaces that evoke both fragility and endurance. Her paintings speak of resilience that does not need to prove itself — strength found in stillness, beauty born from surrender.

The works invite us to slow down, to feel rather than analyze, to listen to what strength sounds like when it stops shouting.

Because sometimes, the most powerful voices are whispered through texture, light, and presence.
