This oneiric serie - The Soul Guardians - is a very dear project of mine, started in 2014 and now I would like to continue it, adding more figurative whimsical characters, in more diverse formats. I'm inspired by this desire of human beings to feel protected by a superior powerful entity since ancient times until our contemporary modern world. I created new versions of guardians - creatures from other realms. Some of them also needs guardians in shape of pets or toys or invisible friends. It is a natural circle that I observed around me.
In creating this piece, I dove into the playful yet poignant world of surrealism, with a touch of symbolism and metaphysical narrative. The boy's oversized head and the ethereal, single balloon embodies a blend of innocence and the burdens of wisdom. The vivid colors bring life, while the contrast ignites a dynamic energy, making any space vibrant. This painting is a celebration of childhood's simplicity shadowed by the depths of existential reflection.
