Amphora Nr.9 This painting reflects the classic painting tradition and methods. The artist continuously ventures to revive the essence of classic mythos, allegory, and symbolism. Classicism is reimagined by a contemporary painter, portraying the inner and outer realms of the human condition. For this motif – the vase, or vessel – it visualizes and mirrors the vessel of surrounding nature. This also explores human nature and our inclination to connect with the ethereal by expressing it in a physical form. The vessel, the urn, and the chalice carry deep symbolic meanings throughout human history and beliefs. They embody life, the promise of life, rebirth, and communication, serving as a link to the sacred, which itself signifies life. The title "Amphora" was chosen to represent and symbolize this communication. The chalice, as a container, also acts as a vessel, functioning as a vehicle and mediator of questions, answers, and messages. The painting bears the artist's initials in oil on the front and a full signature in pen along with a unique serial code on the back.
