Sonny Insinna - Reflection

Reflection

Sonny Insinna

With Reflection, Sonny Insinna explores a more intimate dimension of his artistic research, where movement gives way to contemplation and strength finds expression in silence.

A majestic white horse lowers itself toward the water, observing its own reflection. This is not a gesture of submission, but of awareness. Suspended between earth and water, reality and reflection, the animal seems to pause before continuing its journey, transforming an ordinary moment into a universal meditation on identity, resilience, and inner balance.

The horse has long symbolized freedom, nobility, and spiritual strength. Here, these qualities are expressed through stillness rather than motion. The calm surface of the water becomes a mirror of the soul, inviting the viewer to reflect on the importance of self-knowledge before embarking on any new path.

Executed in oil, ink, and charcoal on canvas, the work combines refined anatomical realism with expressive contemporary mark-making. Transparent layers of color, fluid ink washes, and energetic charcoal lines dissolve the boundaries between the tangible and the emotional, creating a timeless atmosphere where silence becomes the true protagonist.

Rather than depicting a specific place, Reflection evokes a state of mind. It reminds us that every meaningful journey begins with a moment of introspection.
