Description: "Virtual hug", is a deep exploration of human feelings of love, longing and connection, but also the hidden suffering behind longing. Worked in many layers and vibrant colors, this mixed media work on canvas reveals the complexity and depth of our inner emotions. "Virtual Hug" captures our fragility and deep desire to connect with loved ones, even when we are physically separated. Through technology and the virtual world, we can keep these connections alive, even in the most remote corners of the world or in the most difficult times. However, the artwork does not stop at the superficiality of a virtual hug. It also explores the suffering and loneliness we can feel behind screens despite the apparent connection. We understand that while technology allows us to stay connected, it can never replace genuine human warmth and presence. The painting challenges us to reflect on how we relate to the virtual world and the technology that surrounds us, and to always remember the importance of authenticity and human connection in our lives.
