The Pietà can be interpreted as a metaphor for the process of accepting loss and finding a way forward, which is a vital aspect of the grief process. Overall, the Pietà is a strong and moving portrayal of the human experience of grief and loss, as well as the enduring power of love and compassion to heal. Transformation is a recurrent theme in most of my works. This topic involves a profound physical, emotional, or historical shift or transition. This transition frequently symbolizes a new beginning or a clean slate and can be seen as a metaphor for the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Mixed media work: watercolor pencils, paint marker, watercolor and pastels on paper (300g/m2), without frame, covered with a protective layer of varnish.(SOLD) **About the Artist: ** For Luna Ljus, art is a tool to disconnect from the moment, process emotions, and return to the present with more energy and focus. She explores new ideas and possibilities by showing literary, fictional, and (art) historical topics in an abstract way with bright colors. Most of her works deal with the subject of transformation. This is portrayed as a major physical, emotional, or historical change or transition. It is often a symbol of a new beginning or a clean slate. It can also be seen as a metaphor for the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Her work is inspired by mythology, science fiction, and art history. She often uses strong, contrasting colors to give a sense of movement and energy. Her watercolor and mixed-media paintings often have geometric and organic shapes, as well as dreamlike patterns that hint at other worlds. In her work, people, animals, and other recognizable shapes and symbols should appear when color fields and lines interact. "My aim is to make your walls come alive with the energy of my art."

No orders possible between 12.12.2024 and 15.01.2025. Luna Ljus, a multidisciplinary artist originating from Brazil, presents a diverse portfolio centered around the motif of metamorphosis. Her creations resonate with profound shifts—be they physical, emotional, or historical. Drawing from a rich tapestry of inspirations, including mythology, sci-fi, and the annals of art history. Ljus's invites audiences to a realm where the present moment is momentarily set aside, allowing for a cathartic journey through emotion, only to circle back with a rejuvenated perspective. Employing a blend of the abstract and the literal, she reimagines literary, fictional, and historical themes, often through a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. At the heart of her repertoire is the notion of transformation. Each piece, echoing life's cyclical dance of birth, decay, and rebirth, beckons onlookers to ponder the depths of change. Her visual lexicon unfolds with a mix of geometric musings and organic shapes, painting dreams and hinting at alternate dimensions. There's a deliberate interplay of color and form—a testament to her infatuation with their symbiotic relationship. Ljus's canvases pulsate with energy, largely credited to her choice of spirited, juxtaposed colors. The echoes of Fauvism, Cubism, and Abstract Expressionism, particularly the traces of Orphism and color field techniques, are undeniable in her work. Moreover, the recurring patterns and symbols in her pieces are deliberate nods to mythology, science fiction, and the annals of art history. Ljus's meticulous method involves a profound exploration of narrative through the prism of elementary forms and vivid colors, often blurring the lines between the abstract and the definitive. Her penchant for the tactile essence of paper and water-soluble pigments pushes her to constantly experiment with varied mediums, crafting semi-abstract artworks. Each creation undergoes an intriguing evolution. Beginning with a detailed watercolor foundation, the piece is subject to alterations in color fields and strokes over days or even weeks, reflecting the evolving thoughts and sentiments that sparked its inception. This fluid process sometimes yields unforeseen motifs, adding serendipitous layers to her work. Ljus's oeuvre is thoughtfully segmented into series: "Renewals" delves into the nuances of change. "Strange Worlds" is a poetic contemplation of alternate realities and entities.
