Original artwork description:

In Wedding, Ukrainian artist Inga Makarova presents a refined and thoughtful study of union and emotional commitment. Two white hands emerge from opposite sides of the composition, their fingers caught in a web of fine lines – symbolic threads that bind one to another, invisible yet powerful. The rich brown background and decorative oval of pearls suggest a ceremonial space, one charged with emotional resonance.

The work is not merely a representation of marriage – it is an exploration of the unseen aspects of partnership. The threads stand in for trust, memory, sacrifice, and affection. The hands, with their stylised, elongated fingers, seem to perform a silent ritual: one that hints at both connection and the tension that precedes it.

Wedding will appeal to collectors who seek poetic, symbolic art that speaks in gestures and metaphors rather than words. It is a moving tribute to the quiet strength of emotional bonds.

Materials used:

pencil, gouache
