‘On the Way to Divinity’ aspires to showcase the inner journey of attaining divinity. Passio – the cumbersome grips of the material world. Manumissio – the surrendering of the suffering, the ego. Metanoia – the act of turning the undivided attention inwards. Purgatio – the shattering of the illusions. Aequlibrium – unraveling the mysterious golden path of Divinity. ‘Enthusiasm’ embraces each female form on the Way as the etymology of the word ‘to be inspired or possessed by a god’ permeates the images in a twofold way: a delicate line between sensually gracious and fiercely passionate.
Creating masterpieces of undisguised female aesthetics has always been a quintessential part of human nature, which has been ceaselessly seeking the celestial realms. My artwork is shaped by a dualistic approach when it comes to capturing divinity: it yearns to cherish the bare flesh-and-blood female form while aspiring to evoke ethereal passion and 'enthusiasm' – as the word's etymology suggests 'being inspired or possessed by a god'. Hence, let your eyes be guided by this delicate line between the sensually tempting and the gracefully passionate realms to become "inspired and possessed".
