„Avarice"

"Avarice" – A Reflection on Desire and Transience 

The painting "Avarice" reveals a provocative and thought-provoking narrative: a woman indulges in consuming her own jewelry. Her expression, touched with a mystical allure, contrasts with the destructive act of devouring the very symbols of wealth and luxury. Yet, the image extends beyond mere material desire, inviting a deeper question: What truly nourishes the soul - the fleeting brilliance of gold and the shimmer of jewels, or the timeless, intangible values that offer genuine fulfillment? In a world that often equates success with outward wealth, this work challenges us to see the truth: that real worth lies not in the fleeting glitter of possessions but in the enduring treasures of the unseen and the eternal.
