Description
The painting symbolically captures the very beginning of life. The composition is dominated by intertwined snakes, which since ancient times have represented birth, transformation, cyclicality, and the power of nature. At their center lies a human embryo—a fragile symbol of new beginnings and potential.
The contrast between the protective circle formed by the snakes’ bodies and the vulnerability of unborn life raises questions about humanity’s relationship with nature, the origin of existence, and the constant cycle of life and death. The work invites the viewer to reflect on the fact that every human story begins the same way—as a tiny possibility hidden amid the forces that shape us from the very beginning.
