Paolo KOZMA - TO BE

Π inspired by Shakespeare's timeless question, this work deliberately removes the possibility of doubt. The word "NOT" is crossed out because, for me, there is only one meaningful answer: to be.

The painting is an invitation to embrace life without hesitation. The energetic splashes and gestural marks reflect the chaos, uncertainty, and unpredictability that surround us every day. Yet the message remains clear and untouched: despite everything, we always have the choice to live, to create, and to move forward.

Blending urban pop aesthetics with abstract expressionist energy, this piece transforms a universally known phrase into a personal manifesto. It is not about philosophy—it is about action. A reminder to stop waiting, stop doubting, and seize the present moment.
Carpe Diem. Choose to Be.

The artwork will be shipped as a rolled, unstretched canvas for safe delivery. Packaged in tube box and wrapped properly.
Rolled works can be easily stretched (for canvas works, i.e. placed onto wooden stretcher bars) and/or framed by a local framer upon arrival completely normal for rolled canvas. Minor waves or creases may be visible upon arrival, which is completely normal for rolled canvas. These will disappear once the canvas is stretched or framed by a professional framer.

All my shipments will be made through DHL EXPRESS or a similar company, always trying to guarantee the safety, care and efficient delivery of the work. However, delays that may occur in the case of goods are beyond my control; I will always be attentive to tracking the shipment and any incident that may arise, being at the customer's disposal to provide appropriate assistance and support.

Thank you for your appreciation!
