Description from the seller

Between Two Distant Skies

I stand where clouds have learned geometry, where the air holds both a burnt orange sun and a world made small and blue. My hair falls like a quiet river I have stopped trying to explain. Around me, colour breaks apart - orange, rust, white - as if feeling itself cannot hold a single shape. A blue bird passes without urgency. I wear the dark like a coat I chose. The brushwork beneath me breathes, loose and tender, and the light on my hands is the only warmth I keep. I am not lost. I am simply somewhere between.

-- Mounting: Professionally hand-stretched on a wooden chassis.

-- COA: Hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity included.
-- Shipping: Custom protective packaging; Catawiki Smart Shipping with full tracking and insurance.

About the Artist
Enigma is an Italian surrealist who paints their own likeness into worlds of pure imagination - not to tell a story, but to ask a question.
The figures are deliberately genderless, blending masculine and feminine so no single identity stands between the viewer and the canvas.
Reality bends through frames within frames: rooms open onto other rooms, other skies, other selves, rendered in smooth, luminous brushwork and blocks of bold, contrasting color.
Each painting is a dreamscape where memory, symbol, and self dissolve into one another - and every canvas is one of a kind, never repeated.
