Knotted Sea Snake with Airplane: Mixed Media Allegorical View 42x60 cm
A giant serpent, rendered in vivid blue and red bands, coils into an impossibly intricate knot at the center of this surreal landscape. Suspended between land and water, the creature’s twisting body evokes ancient symbols of eternity and self-entanglement, while
skeletal remains beneath the surface hint at cycles of death, rebirth, and the consequences of predatory instinct. The simplified pastoral hills and stylized trees contrast sharply with the serpent’s hyper-detailed form, creating a tension between mythic subject and dreamlike setting.
Overhead, jet contrails slice across a tranquil sky, introducing a note of modernity and suggesting the intrusion of human progress into natural and symbolic worlds. Blending folk-art textures with contemporary digital surrealism, the work meditates on power, vulnerability, and the looping patterns that bind life across time — whether biological, psychological, or cosmic.
