This painting is about the expectations that others place on us — from family, society, or people close to us.

Lina Poluna is a contemporary artist whose oil paintings explore the fragile balance between freedom and confinement. Through emotional and symbolic imagery, she reveals the quiet intensity of the human soul — where pain, strength, and transformation coexist.
"My art is a reflection of the moments when protection turns into isolation, and silence becomes louder than words.
I paint the inner landscapes of the mind — fragile, tense, and raw — using oil as a way to touch what cannot be spoken. Each piece is both a confession and a release, a trace of something felt but unseen.
Through muted tones and layered textures, I explore themes of vulnerability, control, and freedom. My paintings are not meant to comfort; they are meant to reveal. They invite the viewer to meet their own reflection in stillness, to recognize both the wound and the light within."
