Series Males, the way, 60x80 cm

Acrylic on canvas

In this captivating artwork, rendered in acrylic on canvas, we encounter a sketchily depicted wooden figure, drawn with an acrylic pen, caught in a posture of deep reflection—kneeling on one knee at the beginning of a golden path that leads out from an open black door. The figure's head is bowed, as if caught in a moment of decision or pause, on the verge of stepping onto the glowing path ahead.

The background, stark in white, contrasts with the grey door, framed by golden accents, creating a scene filled with silence and anticipation. The black door with golden outlines, symbolic of transitions and new beginnings, stands open—a beckoning to brave the unknown, while the golden light illuminating the path promises hope and guidance.

The representation of the wooden figure, simple yet expressive, lends the artwork a universal quality. Each viewer may see in this figure their own hesitations and hopes, their personal moments of decision where the next step holds both fear and fascination.

This piece speaks a quiet, yet poignant language of transformation and personal growth. It reminds us that each of us stands before doors that must be opened, and the path that stretches beyond them is uncertain yet full of potential. The combination of the motif's simplicity and the depth of the emotions portrayed makes this work a powerful mirror of the human experience—a visual poem about courage, choice, and the endless possibilities that life offers.
