Moltenism, Original painting on Canvas, "Silent Cries of the Ocean 6" series 60х80cm

"Silent Cries of the Ocean" depicts birds flying over a vast ocean. The white background with textured paste symbolizes the purity and vastness of the ocean, once untouched and pristine. The birds, crafted in gold, represent the beauty and value of wildlife that relies on the ocean for survival. The use of gold highlights the preciousness of nature but also contrasts starkly with the depiction of pollution and environmental degradation.

The black contours made with molten glass form swirling patterns in the ocean, symbolizing oil spills, plastic waste, and other pollutants contaminating the water. These swirling black lines highlight the spread of pollution and its insidious impact on marine life and ecosystems. The birds flying above, while still majestic, are portrayed with a sense of urgency and distress, symbolizing the disruption of their natural habitat.
