ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Piercing Passion" is a striking piece of art that features heart embroidery rendered in vibrant shades of bright red. The heart, meticulously crafted in relief, emerges from the canvas with a three-dimensional effect, commanding attention and evoking a sense of intensity. What sets this artwork apart is the addition of a real wooden arrow, skillfully aimed at the bull's eye spot positioned right at the bottom of the heart. The arrow pierces through the fabric, creating a visual metaphor for the powerful and sometimes painful nature of love and passion. The bright red colors symbolize the fiery emotions and fervent desires that reside within the heart. The juxtaposition of the delicate embroidery and the boldness of the arrow creates a captivating contrast, representing the paradoxical nature of human emotions. Organic Cotton, cotton thread, and wood stick. Dimensions: 20 x 20 cm **FRAMES ARE ILLUSTRATIVE, THE PIECE IS SOLD UNFRAMED**

As an artisan, I pour my heart and soul into each and every piece that I create. I take great care in developing unique and truly special items, whether from orders, references, molds, or existing patterns. Unlike many artists who can create effortlessly, it took me years of introspection and inner turmoil before I was able to embrace my creativity and let it flow freely and fully. But now that I have, I can create works full of color, shape, imperfection, playfulness, and mysticism. When you look at my pieces, you'll see a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors - reds, golds, and greens that I don't typically wear or use daily. I incorporate a mix of references, symbols, and beliefs into each piece, creating something truly unique and reflective of my personal style. One of my favorite motifs is the heart - I am drawn to all kinds of hearts, from the anatomical to the sacred, the chubby to the thin. I also incorporate elements of nature into my work, such as branches, leaves, and flowers, which are faithful complements to the other symbols and shapes in my designs. Each piece that I create is a reflection of what is inside of me - my passions, my beliefs, and my artistic vision. When you check one of my pieces, you are not just checking a beautiful project but a piece of my heart and soul.
