THE COLLECTION · WORKING DRAFT
Selected
Works
A developing collection of paintings exploring movement, memory, water and the human form. Titles and narratives are provisional and will be refined with the artist before the site goes live.

01 · WORKING TITLE
Beyond the Finish
The athlete appears in several stages of the same journey—swimming, cycling and running—while the central figure carries the fatigue of all three. The work is less about victory than about the private decision to keep moving when the finish still feels far away.

02 · WORKING TITLE
Fractured Reflection
A face remains calm while the surface around it breaks apart. Each fracture becomes a boundary between what is shown, what is protected and what can no longer be held together.

03 · WORKING TITLE
Breathless Blue
The instant after immersion is captured as water rushes across the face and the world becomes soundless. It is a portrait of surrender: a brief pause between resistance and release.

04 · WORKING TITLE
Rooted in Myth
A human figure rises naturally from the ancient olive trunk, as though memory has taken physical form. The painting connects the endurance of the tree with the quiet strength of generations shaped by the Mediterranean.

05 · WORKING TITLE
Still Life in Violet
A transparent pitcher turns an ordinary arrangement into a study of distortion, reflection and colour. The lemons bring warmth to a scene suspended between domestic calm and theatrical light.

06 · WORKING TITLE
Liquid Desire
Red lips emerge through a veil of water, balancing intimacy with distance. The image suggests desire as something vivid yet impossible to hold, always changing the moment it is touched.

07 · WORKING TITLE
Gravity of the Harvest
Olives appear caught between falling and floating, surrounded by the energy of water. The familiar fruit becomes a symbol of abundance, movement and the invisible forces that bind nature together.

08 · WORKING TITLE
Held in Water
Two hands protect a heart formed from water, even as it continues to spill and change. The work asks whether love is something we possess—or something we can only hold carefully for a moment.

09 · WORKING TITLE
Within the Fracture
A woman’s face survives inside a broken fragment while darkness surrounds the remaining pieces. The fracture is not only damage; it becomes a frame through which identity is reconstructed.

10 · WORKING TITLE
Heroes of Another Galaxy
Icons of childhood imagination gather in a single cosmic scene, united beyond the borders of their original worlds. The painting celebrates the timeless courage, colour and optimism of the heroes that shaped a generation.

11 · WORKING TITLE
The Long Ascent
A solitary runner moves deeper into an immense mountain landscape. With his face turned away, the effort belongs to anyone who has continued upward without knowing exactly what waits beyond the next ridge.

12 · WORKING TITLE
Sea in Motion
Water rises into forms that resemble distant islands, mountains and creatures before collapsing again. The painting transforms a fleeting splash into an entire imagined landscape.

13 · WORKING TITLE
Half Memory
Only part of the classical face is revealed, yet the eye meets the viewer with unmistakable presence. The missing half turns the statue into a meditation on history, beauty and everything time refuses to preserve.

14 · WORKING TITLE
Strawberry Splash
A strawberry breaks the surface and, for a fraction of a second, the ordinary becomes spectacular. The painting freezes that instant—the tension of the water, the vivid red of the fruit and the light scattered into countless droplets. It is a celebration of energy, freshness and the beauty hidden inside a fleeting moment.

15 · WORKING TITLE
Beacon Beyond the Glass
A lighthouse and a passing ship appear through an aged window, suspended between interior memory and open sea. The frame becomes a threshold: a quiet invitation to look beyond shelter and toward whatever light remains on the horizon.
