The Myth of Softness. (2021) Original Mixed-media Painting by Tatsiana Yelistratava

60 x 80 x 1.5cm (unframed) / 60 x 80cm (actual image size)

£1,328.96

The Myth of Softness explores the cultural fantasy of feminine gentleness — a softness that is admired, desired, and often misunderstood. The portrait is built from layered fragments of color and symbolic collage, reflecting how a woman’s identity can be shaped by expectations and projections. The decorative background suggests the idealized image, while the fractured, vibrant surface of her face reveals a deeper truth: softness is not fragility, but quiet strength formed through experience.
Her calm, steady gaze carries awareness and resilience. The work invites the viewer to look beyond the myth and recognize the power that can live inside gentleness.
This painting is ideal for collectors who appreciate expressive, symbolic portraiture and will suit modern, eclectic, or art-focused interiors, from living rooms to creative studios.
Created with acrylic and mixed media on canvas, the artwork will be carefully packed and shipped in a protective box.
