Spirit of Water

"Spirit of Water" Linocut by Liliana Gerardi.

For this project I was inspired by the idea that the whole universe is one organic unity. The universe is in deep harmony and we are breathing together. The whole universe is breathing together, the earth, the men, the animals, the plants, and the water. If we damage the water we stop breading together and we destroy the harmony for the life of future generations.

“My art work ranges from symbolic to abstract. I am inspired by primitive art, aboriginal art, as well as art with spiritual significance like that of Klee or Kandinsky. I work intuitively without previous sketches and I like it that way. I like curved lines, free as flowing water, the circle in my work is a generator of energy and I prefer it red.”
