Deprivation

“Deprivation” (1985) explores inner transformation and the shift from sexual energy to creative power. A woman in the center of the canvas, with closed eyes and folded hands, represents concentration and inner reflection. A swallow rises from her shoulder but ends up dead in her hands, symbolizing the transformation of sexual energy into a higher, more creative force. The painting is a reminder that personal growth sometimes requires the sacrifice of desires in order to achieve spiritual growth. It emphasizes self-control and inner transformation, transforming sexual energy into creative and spiritual energy for higher purposes and consciousness. The artwork emphasizes the importance of inner strength and discipline in our quest for higher consciousness.
