Medusa

A large-scale oil painting where looking becomes dangerous: myth, body, water, and cosmos coiling into one field.

“Medusa gathers myth into a field of motion. Saturated colour, circular force, and dense gestural marks create an image that coils, watches, and transforms. Aquatic, bodily, celestial, and protective associations move through the surface, held together by pressure rather than fixed narrative. The painting feels nocturnal and alive: luminous, volatile, and difficult to contain.”
