About the artwork

This painting is a powerful homage to Hokusai's iconic "Great Wave off Kanagawa" - and at the same time a free, contemporary reinterpretation of an age-old theme: the unbridled energy of the sea. In the centre of the painting, a monumental wave rears up, dynamic, foaming, on the verge of overturning - captured in that state of suspension between violence and beauty, chaos and sublimity.

But unlike the Japanese original, which is kept in clear blue tones, this wave vibrates in iridescent rainbow colours. Its surface becomes a flowing poetry of colour - a kaleidoscopic echo of inner states, from hope to fear to ecstasy. The spray, almost weightless, floats in bright white over the crest of the wave like a last breath before the discharge.

The sky opens up in delicate shades of blue. In its centre is a bright, almost circular point of light, reminiscent of an abstracted sun - a symbol of clarity, a centre, perhaps also a new beginning.

This wave is not merely a representation of nature. It symbolises spiritual movement, inner upheaval and emotional transformation. It carries on Hokusai's legacy without being bound to its form - and transfers it into a personal, universal resonance space.

A work that blurs the boundaries between the outer and inner worlds - not just to be viewed, but to be experienced with all the senses. Like a wave that does not fade away, but rolls on within us.
