This vibrant, singular work invites us to reflect intimately on the present moment. Two intertwined silhouettes, with minimalist yet expressive features, seem to melt into a timeless dance. Their open, almost childlike gestures convey an inner freedom and a deep connection. The bold colours - sunny yellow, passionate red, vital green - evoke the power of emotions and the richness of our lives when lived to the full. At the centre, the universal message Carpe Diem stands as a poetic reminder to seize the beauty of the moment, free ourselves from the shackles, and embrace life with intensity. This composition, somewhere between naïve and profound, will speak to each of us like a mirror of our own inner impulses. Étreinte du Présent is not just a painting, but an invitation to breathe life, here and now.
