Through the use of geometric symbols, the artwork represents the journey towards a higher understanding and transcendence, inviting us to contemplate the vastness of the cosmos and our place within it.
With meticulous attention to detail, David de Almeida's print work showcases his technical mastery and artistic sensibility. The vibrant blues create a sense of depth and expansiveness, evoking an ethereal and contemplative atmosphere.
