About this artwork
TURQUOISE from the series Crucified or just blocked plays with the colors red and turquoise around the black and white portrait of a proud woman, which the artist has brought onto the canvas with acrylic paints and a brush. Her portraits in this series appear almost photorealistic. The artist deals with the position of women in today's society and asks herself and the viewer the question: Strong and beautiful women: crucified or just blocked?

« The more curious we are, the more creative we become »
My work explores the tension between identity, body, concealment, and transformation.
I don't understand painting as a representation, but as a space for inner movement. As a place where that which cannot be captured becomes visible.
I work in series that develop organically during the process, not from pre-existing concepts. Material plays a central role: acrylic, texture, gold leaf, platinum, and mixed media are not merely decorative elements, but carriers of meaning.
Concealment is not a retreat. It is a deliberate act. It creates distance, protection, and a new way of reading.
Faces and bodies do not appear as surfaces for identification, but rather as spaces for projection. I understand identity not as a state, but as a process, characterized by the tension between visibility and withdrawal.
