Intriguing fusion of portrait and nature. A woman's face, rendered in soft black and white tones, fills the right side of the canvas. Her eyes closed, the expression serene and subdued. Shapes of leaves are placed over this portrait, partly in gold and partly in transparent structures, which seem to run through the image like cuts. This creates a layered effect, as if nature and man are intertwined.
The golden leaves add warmth and luxury, contrasting sharply with the cool monochrome tones of the face. This play of opposites - organic versus human, colour versus shades of grey - reinforces the symbolism of unity and duality. A longer look reveals how the leaf structures subtly follow the contours of the face, and how the soft texture of the skin relates to the veins and lines of the leaf.
The work evokes themes of connection with nature, impermanence and inner silence. It is both poetic and powerful, an image that balances between fragility and strength. The serene look of the portrait combined with the golden accents makes this artwork timeless and deeply contemplative.
