This painting emerged through a physical, intuitive process—built layer by layer until movement and tension found balance.
The sweeping orange gestures carry a sense of heat and momentum, while darker passages slow the composition and create depth.

Rather than aiming for symmetry or resolution, the work holds a moment of instability.
It invites the viewer to pause inside that tension, to sense motion without direction and energy without explosion.

Painted in acrylic on canvas, the surface reveals traces of revision, pressure, and restraint—an honest record of process.

Berlin, 2026.
