About this artwork

I was inspired by the Renaissance icon, the Florentine artist Sandro Botticelli, and his world-famous work "The Birth of Venus." Anyone with a bit of knowledge about art knows that countless artists have depicted Venus over the centuries. Indeed, the depiction of Venus in art reflects an evolution in the portrayal of women. The fact that artists could interpret the same theme so often reminds me of Picasso's saying: "If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.“ This diversity of interpretations demonstrates the different perspectives and techniques artists have used over time. Each era brought its own views and symbolism into art, constantly reinventing Venus. Thus, each depiction reflects not only the artistic skills but also the cultural and social ideals of its time. Venus remains a timeless motif that represents both the beauty and the complexity of human experience, continually inspiring contemporary artists like myself and many others.
