THEME
Portraits captivate us because they serve as windows into our human experience. They go beyond more than just physical representation- they capture emotions, stories, and identities. Their attraction comes from their power to freeze a moment, revealing the layers and subtleties of an individual's spirit. Whether classical or contemporary, portraits allow us to explore the depth of human expression, reminding us of our shared humanity and individual uniqueness. Show us FACE TO FACE from your perspective.

Abstract art is like breaking the rules of traditional art- it doesn't try to show things as they are in real life. Instead, it uses colors, shapes, and lines in wild and creative ways to express feelings or ideas, often leaving interpretation open to the viewer.
