Saint Lucia

Project type

Oil Painting

Date

2026

Location

Netherlands

This oil painting of Saint Lucia, Martyr was conceived as a dialogue between tradition and personal interpretation. My intention was to honor the visual language of the early Renaissance portrait, while allowing space for a contemporary, surreal disruption that speaks to symbolism, sacrifice, and spiritual vision.

While the overall composition adheres to Renaissance conventions, I intentionally disrupted this structure through a surreal element: Saint Lucia’s eyes floating above her hand in the form of flowers.

The pendant was the most important jewelry during the renaissance
