Black Melt (2024)Watercolour by Julia Ustinovich

This piece was part of the group exhibition Aquarelle Pyrénéenne in France, celebrating the transformative beauty of watercolor. Black Melt captures the intimate and delicate interplay of light and shadow, drawing attention to the fragility and strength of the human form.

The soft textures of the skin are juxtaposed against the deep, melting darkness in the background, symbolizing the contrast between vulnerability and resilience. The subtle glow of light creates an ethereal quality, enveloping the figure with warmth and introspection.

Through this painting, I wanted to explore the delicate balance between self-reflection and exposure, inviting the viewer to connect with the silent, emotional intensity embedded in the composition.
