I wanted to capture the harmony between the simplicity of nature and dreams of freedom and travel. The sea and sun create a serene, meditative landscape that invites the viewer to reflect on the beauty of everyday life. The addition of light and floating balloons symbolizes hope, lightness, and rising above boundaries—perhaps reminding us of dreams that come alive in moments of warmth and illumination. At the heart of the painting, LED strips are embedded, bringing light to life within the artwork. This gives the piece two personalities: one when the lights are off, showing a calm sea , the other when the lights are on, we can see some balloons over the sea. The artwork is crafted on burlap. I have used plaster, acrylics, oil paints, and metallic paint. Inside the piece are LED strips, a transformer, and a dimmer to adjust the light’s intensity.

For the last 15 years I have been doing artistic workshops, being careful not to disturb the individuality of the student - Together we open the door to the world of art more widely. This contact with art through workshops is a wonderful experience for every person. It changes the perception of the entire reality that surrounds us. An ordinary sofa turns into a color framed by the line of the back. And looking at the original painting, we see a trace of the brush and it looks like the artist was here a while ago, and it doesn't matter that 100 years have passed...
