Between Feather and Marble - An Exhibition on Transformation and Inner Strength

Between Feather and Marble

Transformation, inner strength, and the quest for self-worth lie at the heart of my first public exhibition.

Over the past two years, I have created more than 160 works, organized into two distinct series that reflect my artistic exploration of change, identity, and personal growth.

The first series—the "Swan Series"—comprises approximately 90 works. Inspired by the symbolism of the fairy tale "The Ugly Duckling," it speaks to self-worth, authenticity, and the power of transformation. It invites viewers to reflect on their own journeys, the act of letting go of outdated self-images, and the beauty of living authentically.

The second series—"David"—marks the beginning of a new artistic chapter. Inspired by Michelangelo’s famous sculpture "David" and other iconic figures from art history—such as Alexandre Cabanel’s "Fallen Angel"—I have created contemporary, urban reinterpretations. The focus here is on courage, steadfastness, and the archetypal human journey of facing one’s challenges and growing through them.

The exhibition brings together two series that illuminate different facets of the same human journey: the path to self-discovery and the courage to stand up for who you truly are.

Both series are deeply connected to my own life story. Repeated fresh starts, life’s trials, and the search for identity have shaped my artistic voice.

However, these images are not intended as an autobiography; rather, they serve as an invitation to explore universal themes—such as transformation, resilience, and inner strength—from your own perspective.

I look forward to welcoming you to the opening at my home gallery. In an intimate setting, you will have the opportunity to view the works while enjoying a glass of sparkling wine or orange juice, to converse with me, and to learn more about the ideas and stories behind these two series.
