Free, a painting of a fox in search of light and infinite horizons
Thought : 
Every day is a new page in your life. Don't let the whirlwinds of life overwhelm you. Change your perspective and see this new day as a new opportunity.
The painting "Free" depicts a scene of a fox running through a strange, timeless space. This artwork evokes a parallel dimension where nature merges with the vastness of the cosmos, creating a mysterious and fascinating universe.
The background consists of misty strokes of dark green, black, and light green, erasing any distinction between the ground, a bush, or a nighttime sky. This ambiguity enhances the sense of an indefinable space. Small white dots scatter across the scene, resembling stars, constellations, or perhaps fireflies gently illuminating this mysterious forest.
At the center of the painting, where the fox's paws touch the ground between its leaps, a vibrant, glowing vegetation springs to life. White umbel flowers, resembling small natural lanterns, symbolize inner light and awakening. Among them, light blue and violet bell-shaped flowers, delicately scattered, evoke serenity and spirituality. These plants, seemingly growing in contact with the fox, reflect a transformative power, as if the animal is infusing its environment with benevolent energy.
The fox, in full stride, is the beating heart of the composition. Its reddish fur is beautifully contrasted by a white chest and tail. Its taut muscles, fluid leaps, and gaze fixed straight ahead convey boundless energy and unwavering determination. It sees only its goals and lets instinct and intelligence guide it. Each stride seems to write a new line in the story of its freedom.
The shades of green, black, and white blend harmoniously, creating an atmosphere that is both mysterious and calming. The flashes of light that punctuate the scene contrast with the surrounding darkness, symbolizing hope and the emergence of light in the midst of darkness.
The fox, rich in symbolism, is a figure of intelligence, adaptability, and resilience. In many cultures, it is associated with cunning and the ability to solve problems ingeniously. In Japanese mythology, for example, the kitsune is a spiritual being linked to the deity Inari, symbolizing prosperity and fertility. In North American Indigenous folklore, the fox is sometimes portrayed as a trickster, a clever figure who imparts life lessons through its cunning.
"Free" can also be seen as an allegory of emancipation. The fox, running untethered in a world without defined boundaries, embodies inner freedom, where external constraints disappear. This scene invites deep reflection: changing our perspective to embrace each day as a new opportunity, and allowing our instincts and inner light to guide us toward limitless horizons.
