For me as an artist, the title "Mastery (II)" stands for a quiet, almost minimalist exploration of the concept of control - not in the sense of a dominating force, but rather as an expression of serenity and harmony. The figure on the animal's back sits calmly and upright, almost floating, in the middle of this empty, clear landscape. For me, she embodies a kind of equilibrium, a gentle yet unshakeable power over what she is riding.
The relationship between the woman and the animal is not characterised by coercion or force, but by a silent agreement. There are no visible reins, no tools of control - only her attitude and her calmness that defines the relationship. In the simplicity of the scene, the clear colours and shapes, I find the essence of what mastery really means: letting go of constraint and trusting in the natural balance between living beings and their environment.
The woman's yellow skirt stands in stark contrast to the deep blue of the sky and the calm presence of the animal. For me, this colour tension symbolises the quiet power that lies in mastery - it is present without being intrusive, and it draws the eye of the viewer without dominating the space. The woman appears determined but also centred, as if she is part of the natural flow of things.
For me, this work is a continuation of the exploration of the concept of mastery - it shows that true control is not achieved through force or violence, but through understanding, calm and mutual respect. It is a silent dialogue between the figure and the world around it, a balance that appears fragile yet is powerful in its simplicity.
