About the artwork

The title "This concentrated happiness in one moment robs her of her senses (I)" captures for me the essence of an overwhelming moment - a moment in which emotions and energy are so intense that they dominate the consciousness and make everything else fade into the background. The dynamic colours, the bright yellow and the deep black, merge together in a powerful dance that symbolises the unbridled force of this happiness. It is a happiness that is not quiet or gentle, but sudden and overwhelming - so strong that it takes your breath away and dazes your senses.

The painting itself represents the feeling of being caught up in a wave of happiness - it is the explosion of an emotion that manifests itself in the movement of the colours. The way the yellow flows into the black is for me the expression of this moment, in which happiness and perhaps also a touch of darkness unite. Because in every intense moment of happiness there is also a hint of unreality, a small fear that this moment cannot last forever.

For me, this composition shows the chaos that arises in us at such moments - the colours explode, swirl and dance on the canvas as if they cannot be tamed. And yet this chaos also harbours a form of beauty, of harmony. It is proof that happiness is not static, but a flowing, living feeling that spreads through us and makes us forget the world around us for a moment.

This work is about how happiness can envelop a person, how it floods all the senses until nothing else matters. The first part of this series is just the beginning of a deeper exploration of the emotional power and unpredictability of happiness - a state that can be intoxicating and shattering at the same time.
