About The Artwork

Auction sale link The painting technique refers to the painting of the old Flemish masters. The picture is painted with the world's best single-pigment, natural oil paints. A beautiful and tempting inhabitant of the Powançal house on the horizon went out to the apple orchard in search of adventures. In her hands she holds the forbidden golden apple, which tempts fate. An apple is a fruit that has an extremely symbolic dimension. It was the apple that Eve allegedly tempted Adam. In Greek mythology, the golden apple with the inscription "for the fairest" thrown by the goddess Eris during the wedding of Thetis and Peleus became the cause of a dispute between Hera, Aphrodite and Athena. The apple was a symbol of royal power. Royal in Latin called globus cruciger is an ancient emblem of royal and imperial power, at first belonging only to the emperor, it slowly underwent degradation to find itself first in the hands of selected kings, then in the coats of arms of the nobility and finally in the coats of arms of cities and towns.

In my work, I am interested in the relationship between social roles and intimate human needs. Cultural gender, age, religion, origin, family or social structure, and geopolitical situation entail specific expectations that a person faces. There is a need to make decisions or passivity. I believe that my paintings touch on this moment of internal uncertainty and indeterminacy, I show sympathy with confusion and foreboding, uncertainty and certainty, shame and boldness. Duality accompanies me constantly, and leaving cultural roles gives me the opportunity to look at the consequences.
