IDEA/CONCEPT
This piece captures the essence of ambition, power, and transcendence. The winged rider, a fusion of mythology and history, symbolizes the eternal human pursuit of greatness. The rearing horse amplifies the energy of movement, as if leaping beyond time itself. The vibrant bursts of pink, yellow, and orange contrast the monochromatic figure, representing the collision between classical grandeur and contemporary urban chaos. The floating heart above suggests an unexpected tenderness—perhaps the idea that even in the pursuit of power, there is space for passion and humanity.
EXECUTION & PROCESS
The artwork was built with a careful balance of precision and raw spontaneity. The classical figure was rendered in black and white, enhancing its timelessness, while the background was infused with expressive splashes of color and bold textures. The drips and splatters in the lower half of the painting suggest motion and imperfection, reinforcing the idea that even legends are shaped by their surroundings. The contrast between fine details and abstract strokes makes the piece feel both structured and fluid, capturing the tension between history and modernity.
PERSONAL REFLECTION
To ascend is to push past limits, to defy expectations. This piece is about the force that drives us forward, the strength to rise, and the heart that keeps us grounded.
