Creation from Chaos stages a generative act in which painting material is born from rupture and dispersion. The surface of the canvas is crossed by splashes and runnels that spread instinctively, creating a dynamic and layered composition, without a dominant center but rich in visual tension.

The work is distinguished by the use of eggshells, white and coated in red metallic leaf, used as containers of color. Symbol of fragility and origin, the egg is transformed here into a release instrument: its fracture becomes a creative gesture, and the released color expands on the canvas like uncontrolled energy. The fragments of shells, still visible, act as physical traces of the event, making the painting act irreversible and tangible.

The tension between the purity of white, the metallic intensity of red, and the moving chromatic matter suggests a reflection on birth as a chaotic and necessary process. In Creation from Chaos, destruction and creation coincide, and painting asserts itself as a place of transformation.

"It is never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of seeing what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that suits modern times: impactful and memorable."
