This artwork is a part of the Bird-Eye View series and was featured at the group exhibition “Vibration” at the Monat Gallery in Madrid.
This painting captures a light-filled summer moment from above – a collection of paddleboarders drifting peacefully across turquoise water. Seen from a bird’s-eye view, the scene becomes both narrative and abstract: human figures form a pattern, scattered like sunlit thoughts on a still surface.
I was drawn to the balance between movement and stillness, leisure and structure. Each figure is absorbed in their own world – some paddling, some resting, some gazing into the distance – creating a mosaic of quiet stories without words. From this elevated perspective, they seem weightless, timeless, almost dreamlike.
The composition is deliberately ordered, with vibrant contrasts and soft textures, merging realism with a sense of design. I aimed to reflect not just the visible scene, but the feeling of summer freedom: openness, space, warmth, and pause.
This work is part of a broader interest in capturing everyday human presence from unusual viewpoints – where the ordinary becomes poetic, and the individual becomes part of something larger.
