Not an ordinary battle, with uniformed soldiers and gleaming weapons, no. It's an inner battle, a battle of emotions, passions and torments.
When you look at "Bataille", you are initially overwhelmed by the violence of the hues, the blood-red mingling with the deep black, seemingly absorbing the light. The scar-like drips of paint tell the story of inner struggles. Each stroke seems to carry the pain of a moment lived, the joy of a victory won, or the sadness of an inevitable defeat. We can almost hear the mute, frozen-in-time calls of the soul seeking to make itself heard in the midst of the chaos of existence.
And yet, in the midst of this battle, beauty can be discerned. A wild, indomitable beauty, like a storm that tears the sky apart before giving way to the sun's rays breaking through the clouds. An elusive beauty that reminds us that at the heart of the fiercest battles, life persists, fragile, precious but determined to go on.
"Bataille" is an ode to humanity and all its struggles, a silent cry that echoes in our hearts and reminds us that we are alive.
