Description

The High Priestess n. 5 – Major Arcana belongs to a painting research dedicated to contemporary archetypes, where the symbolic tradition of the Tarot meets a profoundly current sensibility.

The gaze of the figure immediately captures the observer, establishing a silent dialogue that seems to go beyond the surface of the painting. The small crimson heart placed at the center of the forehead becomes the symbol of knowledge born from the union between intuition and feeling, transforming the face into a threshold between the visible world and the inner one.

Deep tones of blue envelop the composition like an aura, while oil painting returns a luminous, vibrant material rich in depth.

More than representing a character, this work evokes a state of being: silence, listening, mystery and the strength of awareness.

Entirely handmade, The High Priestess n. 5 is a unique work, destined for collectors who appreciate contemporary figurative painting, symbolism and works capable of maintaining over time a strong aesthetic and emotional presence.

Nush Menna's works are part of private collections in several countries around the world, between Europe, America, Asia and Africa. Her painting language, in continuous evolution, is appreciated by collectors interested in the dialogue between symbolism, contemporary portrait, and symbolic research and contemporary introspection.

Each painting by Nush Menna arises from a personal artistic path and is entirely handmade in a unique specimen. Auctions represent an opportunity to acquire an original work by the artist, destined to enter a private collection.

Shipping

The work is protected with a professional final varnish, applied to ensure better preservation over time.

It will be shipped rolled in a professional rigid tube, a safe method for international transport of canvases. Recyclable packaging materials will be used, in respect of the environment.

The packaging will be done with the utmost care so that the artwork arrives in the best possible condition.

Seller's Story

My painting is born from the desire to explore the human being in contemporary time, between identity, symbols, and inner transformations. I do not simply paint what I see, but what I perceive behind the image: emotions, fragility, tensions, and contradictions that belong to our era. My work develops through a layered and slow oil technique, where every detail has a meaning and every element contributes to the narrative of the piece. The figures I paint do not represent merely individuals, but universal conditions: vulnerability, strength, loneliness, and the longing for connection. For me painting is an act of research and authenticity, a way to restore depth in a world dominated by speed and superficial image. Through color, light, and composition I seek to create works capable of maintaining a living relationship with those who observe them over time. My works are present in international private collections and are mainly created in oil on canvas, with a constant production and an artistic research in continual evolution. "ZEITGEISTTEPERAMENTLOS [SPIRITO - DEL - TEMPO - SENZA - SPIRITO] Riflesso di un attento "studium" travestito da distratto "punctum" - raccolta di ritratti senza identità - costellazione claustrofobica di tribù urbane - moltitudini solitarie - selfie ugualmente di sé massificati per te distratto - istantanee di un passato presente - colori forti per spiriti fragili - profonda superficialità - spirito - del - tempo - senza - spirito."
