INFINITY – IN THE BEGINNING #9

Description

This painting is a vivid tapestry of chromatic brilliance, a celebration of color and form that pulsates with life. At its core are mesmerizing spirals that draw the eye inward, evoking the infinite, the hypnotic pull of galaxies, or the mysterious depths of the ocean. These concentric circles resonate with the energy of creation, from the microscopic to the cosmic, suggesting a boundless universe of possibilities.

The artist employs a palette of electric blues, fiery reds, and lush greens, with accents of purple and gold that add a regal touch to the composition. The colors bleed and blend into one another, creating new hues and gradients that give the work a dynamic, fluid quality, as if the canvas itself is in motion.

Amidst this whirlwind of color, one can discern the suggestion of celestial bodies, the rings of ancient trees, or perhaps the ripples of a stone skipped across a pond. The painting seems to capture the very essence of movement, the ebb and flow of time itself.

The texture is palpable; one can almost feel the vigorous strokes of the brush, and the layering of paint that adds depth and dimension to the piece. The lines etched into the surface are like the markings of an unknown script or the paths of wandering comets. They invite contemplation, drawing the viewer into a dance of imagination and perception.

This is more than a visual experience; it is an invitation to journey through the abstract, to get lost in the depths of color and emerge with a sense of awe and wonder. The painting stands as a tribute to the boundless creativity of the human spirit and the enduring quest to capture the intangible on canvas.

The key concept of the project is to glorify Mother Nature who was the origin of all living creatures on Earth, and her personification is in painting number 2 from the collection, on the left side of the canvas. The divine feminine is in a slightly turned away stance, with her dark red hair flowing freely. Her long hair eventually formed into circles that surrounded her body. Marianne was able to connect the idea of perfection to nature in a subtle way by using geometric shapes and mathematical principles: a spiral in the bottom-right corner next to the Goddess is a reference to Fibonacci’s Golden Spiral, also known as the divine proportion, which is the ideal ratio found in nature. The artist refers to the Golden Ratio while using this idea as the core concept to represent the entire project. According to her statement, all of the paintings in this collection were created in a spiral order and are connected to one another. A large circle is a subject and the beginning of the spiral in painting number 1 on the left of “Feminine Divine,” while the Goddess is a continuation of the spiral’s tail from the first panel. From a technical point of view, this painting is made up of ten layers, the first of which is gesso to create an invisible layer of three-dimensional strokes. The final layer is finished with a digital process to render a brilliant and high solution output. In fact, this project conveys the subliminal concept of nature with a combination of ancient mythology, symbolized by a holy figure, and contemporary digital art and 3D depth effect, allowing viewers to contemplate its aesthetic values and have their experience enhanced through technology.
