In this painting, I have gathered everything the mountain represents to me. A path of life with endless possibilities, where each finely drawn line symbolizes a choice, a decision, a sacrifice. I loved tracing it in blue, the color of knowledge, a quest for clarity and understanding. The path is dotted with deep crevasses, edged in the red of danger. In the paper’s tears, the snow-covered peaks are marked by the events that have scarred us. We grow through trials, yet the bottom of the abyss gleams with gold. It leads to a gilded world where each flash of lightning, depending on its color, becomes danger, hope, or fulfillment. The sky is the neutral silver of no deity. Nothing stands in the way of humankind’s ascent, for they have only to climb the silver ladder to take control of their destiny.
