This artwork depicts the intimate moment when two souls touch and seem to flow together. The coarse, expressive brushstrokes suggest movement and emotion, with the contours of the lovers no longer sharply distinguishable from each other. It seems as if the boundaries between their bodies dissolve, creating a new, joint whole.
The soft tones of skin and warm accents of red, pink and orange emphasise the warmth and fragility of the embrace, while the whites and beiges evoke a sense of purity and stillness. The texture of the paint - thick and tactile - reinforces the impression that this is not a moment that can only be seen, but also felt.
"Merging" is not just about physical closeness, but above all about a deeper unity: the desire to be fully absorbed in the other, to become one breath, one heartbeat, one experience together. It is an ode to love in its most essential form - boundless, vulnerable and all-encompassing.
