"Three States of Soul", 2025

Mixed media (acrylic and golden leaves), canvas

The canvas depicts a single image of a female soul revealed in time. Every face is her way, her trials and her light.

On the right is the purity and tenderness of the young creature. Her look is transparent, but the cracks on the gold around indicate that innocence eventually crumbles under the pressure of the earthly world. The face dissolves, as if it is erased by time or illusion. It symbolizes memory, shadow, transition to the next state.

On the left is an open confident look, unattainable and powerful. In the eyes there is the power of beauty, will and power, but also the shadow of temptations - riches, feelings, worldly life that the growing soul faces.

In the middle is inner peace and meditation. The image of maturity. Closed eyes, lips, as if holding your breath, everything is gathered here: immersion in the silence of your own center. This face is a symbol of the soul, faceted by time, thoughts, search and teaching to live not for the sake of the moment, but for the eternal life of the spirit.

Birds, like threads, connect these three states into a single whole. The predatory Falcon and the Owl, seeing in the dark, guard this path: they balance strength and wisdom, day and night, action and contemplation. Between them is a flock of birds, like thoughts, like a breath, raising the soul to the sky.

Below and around there are elements of water and air, you can feel the flow, from which thoughts and images rise.

Gold is the light of the universe shining through the cracks. It reminds: The divine principle is present in every person, even if the world tries to hide it behind illusions and suffering.

This picture is about the unity of the soul, which goes through three temporal states, but always remains itself. Rhythms of being. About the fact that every person carries eternal light, and that our life is the way back to it.
