Description
‘Romantic Me’ depicts a female figure in the midst of a personal journey that has as its guiding thread the resentment of one's true self by following the line of the heart, despite everything. Like a romantic poem transcribed on canvas, we can fantasise the path of this figure from an imaginary shore, who, following the red thread of the heart, takes small steps among painted colours, flowers, butterflies, melodies in the wind and pages of a book not yet read. We see her continuing on this poetic path, following that thread dictated by her heart and which she does not yet know exactly where it really leads...
And as in a metaphor, life sometimes leads us to choose our own steps despite all the difficulties we may encounter on a path, but if we believe deeply and stop for a moment to listen, and then follow what our heart dictates, our thread, which is then nothing more than the meaning of our life, will slowly reveal itself to us. And as Nietzsche quoted, whatever your destiny, whatever happens, you have to say to yourself ‘this is what you need’... ‘L'Amor fati’.
