The Fragrance of Silence
O Perfume do Silêncio
Mixed media on canvas70 × 50 cmHeight × width · original sheet: 50 × 70 cm (width × height)
In this painting, I sought to capture the serenity of an almost suspended moment — an elegant lady, in a striped dress, picking flowers in a lavender field. Through my semi-figurative, semi-abstract style, with geometric hints and impasto to create texture, I wanted to convey the feeling of time dissolving in the fragrance of silence, where form and emotion blend in color and light.
