Symbols of the Past: Modern Strength is a powerful and intriguing artwork that bridges centuries-old traditions with contemporary expression. The portrait depicts a woman with Aztec symbols on her neck, cheeks and shoulders, alluding to the rich cultural heritage of the Aztecs. These ancient symbols, deeply rooted in history and spirituality, are represented here as tattoos on her skin, highlighting her strength and connection to her ancestors.
The woman has black hair with a subtle blue glow, a modern touch that makes her look contemporary and dynamic. The yellow earrings contrast strongly with the pink background, while pink stripes and abstract shapes are scattered across her face and clothing, emphasising the balance between old and new. This mixed media piece speaks to the power of traditions, while at the same time depicting a modern woman who is powerful and independent in an ever-changing world. Pop Art
