Mama-Substrata 2015 Oil on canvas, mounted on a wooden stretcher frame — 100 x 70 cm / 39.4 x 27.6 in Mama-Substrata is a meditation on the essence of life and the passage of time. At its heart, Mama embodies the balance between physical and spiritual energies, guiding the work’s allegorical journey. I began with a simple sketch, leaving the canvas uncolored to explore its forms with care and intuition. Layer by layer, the painting unfolded as a voyage of discovery, capturing the flow of creative impulse and offering a glimpse into the living beauty of art itself.
