Metamorphosis of the Soul

60 x 40 ″

The artwork reflects a personal journey of metamorphosis and self-discovery through art. A serene woman, accompanied by a majestic white horse, embodies the connection between the earthly and the spiritual. At her feet, an open Gnostic book and a monarch butterfly symbolize rebirth and the evolution of the soul. The scattered paints allude to creativity as a medium for expression and transformation, while the toys and crayons evoke the essence of childhood. In the background, the hanging objects tell stories of a past that nurtures the present. This piece is a tribute to art’s ability to heal, grow, and transcend.
