About this artwork
"Ascent" continues the exploration of emergence and transformation at the heart of the Beginning series. Here, textured forms rise rhythmically through a cool, atmospheric field, suggesting a movement from depth toward light. The upward flow carries both weight and delicacy, as if solid fragments are being lifted by unseen forces into a state of becoming.
The surface shimmers with subtle tonal shifts—greys, silvers, and muted golds—that capture… the tension between earthbound matter and ethereal release. To me, this work reflects the quiet resilience of beginnings: the steady climb, the trust in upward momentum, and the beauty found in the spaces between effort and surrender.
In dialogue with "Drift", "Ascent" embodies a counterpoint—where one speaks of letting go, the other speaks of rising, both gestures forming part of the cycle of transformation that defines this series.

Mona Barbu is a Romanian abstract artist whose paintings explore the relationship between observation and abstraction through colour, light, and material. Inspired by the rhythms and transformations of the natural world, she creates layered compositions that emerge through an intuitive process rather than a predetermined plan. Working primarily with acrylics, she builds textured surfaces where transparency, gesture, and light interact to evoke spaces that feel both familiar and imagined. Rather than depicting nature directly, her work invites contemplation, encouraging viewers to slow down, engage intuitively, and discover their own connections within each painting.
