Moving to a new reality

Moving to a new reality; acrylic, canvas; 2024; 95 х 72 inches; 240 х 183 centimeters

"Moving to a New Reality" is an expansive and thought-provoking artwork, both in its physical scale and its thematic depth. Measuring an impressive 180 by 240 cm, this monumental piece invites viewers to contemplate the vast and intricate layers of existence within a society. The painting explores the idea that within a single city or social structure, there are multiple parallel realities—distinct worlds that people navigate based on their social status, interests, and communities.

In the foreground, a graceful woman in an elegant evening gown stands poised, as if on the threshold of these various realities. Her presence represents the modern woman, navigating the complex intersections of family, work, and societal expectations. The abstract background, rich with swirling patterns and vibrant colors, symbolizes the different realms she might enter—each one offering a unique set of experiences and challenges.

This painting is the first in the "Fancy Ladies" series, where women in evening attire are depicted against abstract backgrounds. The series is dedicated to exploring the multifaceted roles that women play in contemporary society, from the intimate sphere of the family to the broader stage of the workplace and public life. Through this series, the artist delves into the fluidity of identity and the ability of women to move between different realities, adapting and thriving in each.
