Painting "Birth of a Pearl'

This painting speaks about what lies within us – delicate, sensitive, not always visible, yet holding the potential to become beauty. Oysters here become a metaphor for a human being – an inner world that does not always open immediately, but within which a constant creative process takes place. A pearl is born not from perfection, but from vulnerability and fragility.

Creativity is not a luxury or a talent reserved for the chosen few. It is our natural state, our essence. Just as an oyster cannot resist the pearl forming inside it, so too we create even when we are unaware of it. And everything happens silently, deeply, quietly. Where the depths of the sea conceal life, something precious is formed – not shining on the surface, but safeguarded in the dark.

The turquoise line – like a current of thought breaking through the silence – connects our inner and outer worlds. It can be a call, a reminder, or an invitation – to go deeper. It is simply a line, a movement of being.

Perhaps you, too, are an oyster, still carrying an undiscovered pearl?
