About The Artwork

The painting captures Aphrodite’s catharsis, the goddess of love and beauty, who spills her emotions into a golden bowl. The bowl is her power and her emotions’ shape. The water is her tears, each emotion - joy, sorrow, love, pain. The water is life, feeding and healing the Earth. The water is her gift, her compassion and generosity. The painting connects Aphrodite and the Earth, physically and psychologically. Aphrodite is on a rock, stable and strong. She is in greenery, fertile and creative. She is in white, pure and innocent. She has flowers, beautiful and graceful. The Earth is a landscape, complex and rich. It is a possibility, growth and change. It is her subconscious, hidden and repressed. The painting shows Aphrodite’s and Earth’s transformation, emotional and psychological. Aphrodite releases her emotions to the world and herself. She frees herself from burdens and conflicts, and welcomes joys and pleasures. She heals herself and the world, cleansing and renewing. She balances her conscious and unconscious, rational and irrational, divine and human. She reaches harmony and wholeness, a union of opposites.
