The work is numbered and signed but with a signature that makes it difficult to read the identity of the artist. We offer it framed. The original preparatory drawing was probably done in black ink and pencil. Is it a dancer whose fluidity of movement we can guess, a celestial goddess, or perhaps a woman emerging from the very crucible of existence? These are the questions that arise as we peel back the layers of this work of art.

The winding forms like musical notes enveloping her body lend it an aura of ambiguity, casting a veil over her voracious nature. It’s in these details that the interplay between the negative and positive spaces that shape this woman's body weaves the tapestry of her inner world. This dialogue between light and shadow molds the very essence of this enigmatic warrior with raised arms, a victorious embodiment of strength that defies traditional representations.

Yet her face is mysterious, her features and expressions are hidden from our view, and the lower part of her body seems to dissolve into the ether. Despite these absences, her form exudes a physicality and power that is both seductive and magnetic. She could be the visual embodiment of Shakti, the universal mother, a vessel through which the spirit can manifest and materialize. Shakti, the primordial cosmic energy, is the basis of the power of creation and of existence itself. She is the driving force, the ceaseless ebb and flow of the universe's vitality. Without it, the world would not exist. This lithograph is not a simple image, but a profound exploration of the very essence of life and its origin, an aesthetic and silent tribute to the divine feminine, and the eternal dance between creation and destruction.
