✷ Art description:
In this visual sequence of three illustrations, we follow the emotional journey of a figure who celebrates freedom in all its plenitude.In the first image, we observe the figure shaping the shadow of a bird with his hands, in a gesture that echoes his deep connection with the bird's freedom. A carnation appears in the shadow, an intrinsic symbol of freedom in Portuguese culture. The figure follows the bird's flight with serene admiration, capturing the essence of its own freedom while aspiring to its grace and lightness. Finally, in the third image, we witness the figure in a full expression of his freedom, revealed on his journey. The people, gathered in celebration in the streets, share the ecstasy of personal and collective achievement.
This sequence of illustrations is a tribute to freedom as a state of being, achieved when we recognize and embrace the free essence that dwells within each of us.
