Testa di Toro (Bull's Head)

Testa di Toro (Bull's Head) explores the moment when emotional tension reaches its breaking point and instinct takes over. Drawing on the archetype of the Minotaur, the work reimagines this mythological figure not as a monster, but as a symbol of the untamed self—the place where vulnerability, strength, fear, and resilience coexist. Vibrant color contrasts with detailed drawing and fragmented forms, reflecting the tension between chaos and control. Created in mixed media using pencil, ink, technical pens, watercolor, gouache, and acrylic, the painting invites viewers to reflect on transformation as a process of confronting and ultimately embracing the most instinctive parts of ourselves.
