Symbionts (2025 – present)

Some characters don't want to stay on the canvas. They push through the paint. They want to breathe in real air.
That's how this series started. Two objects: "At the Edge of the Forest" and "The Unseen" . They are not separate from my paintings — they are the same beings, just… freed. Stepped out of the frame into your space.

Touch them (you can). "At the Edge of the Forest" is driftwood, wire, papier-mâché, textured like moss-covered stone. Natural and artificial at once. It balances on thin supports — almost floating.
"The Unseen" is darker. Black stone, but not stone. My own papier-mâché compound, polished until it looks ancient. White eyes carved with jeweler's precision. And they watch you. Not menacing. Just… present.

Both hover between myth and reality. Sacred objects, if you want to call them that. I call them symbionts — creatures that live with you, not in your way, but nearby.
They are proof that art can speak to the non-human world. Not by describing it. By becoming it.
