The split fig

1. THE WORK
A fig, dark, shattered, delivered. Its blackened skin, its blood-red interior, its fleshy texture. The substance oozes, flows, leaves traces. The background is neutral, but it soothes nothing. It only highlights the sweet violence of the fruit. This painting does not describe: it bleeds. It speaks of the intimate, the feminine, the living, the overflowing. Each drop, each streak, each smudge is an emotion held back for too long.

2. THE INTENTION
The split fig is a silent cry. It speaks of that moment when we can no longer keep, silence, or contain. It is a work about necessary overflow. The artist did not paint a fig—he painted what we do not say, what we hide, what we feel too strongly. It evokes vulnerability, sacred femininity, sublimated suffering.
It is a work that disturbs… and therefore touches.

3. THE INVITATION
And you... what have you kept inside for too long?
What if art was the one place where we could let all of that out… without having to apologize?

4. YOUR PAINTING AT HOME
A work for a collector's room, a private gallery, an emotional art cabinet, or a radically contemporary interior.
The split fig is not decorative—it is necessary. It is intended for those who dare to hang an emotion on their walls.
It will not be repeated. It will never be imitated.
A visual cry, turned into a work of art.
