Description
In the painting *Head in Flames*, Vera Novak Schwarzer depicts a female figure emerging from a red circle, while her head dissolves into black-and-white fire and smoke. Golden lines hold the form together, while black paint flows down from above as an irreversible process.
The artist works in her characteristic symbolic and illustrative style. Here, fire is not destruction but a transformation that emanates from within and rises upward.
A hand-painted original that brings a sense of inner heat and quiet transformation to the space. A painting that burns without scorching its surroundings.
A symbolic, illustrative painting with mystical and organic elements
