Unique piece! Claudius Mixed Technique on Canvas 100cm x 65cm 2025 The Collection 1 is an exploration of the human body's beauty, rooted in ancient symbolism and expanded through contemporary textures that engage color and the senses. This series is designed to evoke a deep sense of self-trust and safety, inviting the viewer to embrace their own beauty and strength. Each work serves as an invitation into a journey of discovery that encourages introspection and personal connection. Bold forms and vibrant colors are deliberately chosen to illuminate the truth within ourselves, acting as a bridge between the past and the present, the physical and the emotional. More than a visual experience, The Collection 1 is a call to awaken the inner voice and a reminder that beauty is not just seen but felt, understood, and owned.
