This is an original painting created by Eli (16 years old), a young artist whose emerging voice blends emotional clarity with imaginative depth.
Similar to Salvador Dalí’s 1937 diptych Couple aux têtes pleines de nuages, this work echoes the Surrealist fascination with porous boundaries between the visible world and the landscape of dreams. In this winter-themed composition, the figure—delicately rendered with youthful sincerity—appears as though her profile opens into a vast, snow-laden sky. The contours of her silhouette merge with atmospheric layers, giving the impression that her thoughts, hopes, and inner world spill outward into drifting clouds, crystalline air, and the quiet poetry of winter. This interplay between portrait and landscape creates a powerful visual metaphor for adolescence: a time when identity unfolds like a season in transition, shaped by both internal storms and luminous clarity.
