Original artwork description
Reflection II
On the surface of the water, motion begins — ripples, distortions, quiet turbulence. Fish emerge and dissolve within this fragile boundary where reality becomes uncertain. Yet the true transformation happens in the reflection: forms break apart, lines turn into currents of energy, and the familiar world loses its clarity.
This is not merely a reflection of water, but a reflection of perception. What seems stable dissolves in movement, leaving only a lingering sensation. Between depth and surface, a tension arises — between what is and how it is seen.
The painting speaks of the fragility of reality, and how easily it becomes interpretation.

About
I create art as a way to explore the quiet dialogue between reality and imagination. My paintings are inspired by classical traditions of painting, particularly the dramatic light and symbolism... Read more
