About the artwork

This artwork exudes a dreamy and introspective atmosphere, as if the depicted woman has completely immersed herself in her own thoughts and fantasies. Her face is partially blurred or unfinished, giving the impression that she is slowly merging into her imagination, as if the line between reality and illusion is blurring.

The coarse, almost sculptural textures of the paint, combined with the soft and realistic details of her face, create a contrast between the tangible and the ethereal. This reflects the duality of existence: being physically present in the world while getting lost in inner thoughts. Her closed eyes and serene expression reinforce this sense of introspection and solitude, as if she has withdrawn into an inner universe where time and space no longer play a role.

The subtle garland of flowers in her hair adds a poetic element, a symbol of softness, impermanence and beauty. It seems as if she is about to dissolve into the canvas itself, giving her a mysterious and almost unearthly character.

"Lost in Imagination" depicts the moment when a person completely surrenders to his or her thoughts, drifting away from reality and floating in the world of dreams, memories and desires. This artwork invites the viewer to reflect on the power of imagination and the fragile boundary between what is and what could be. Modern Abstract.
