Last January, I had the honor of participating in the IEAA – International Emerging Artist Award, a global competition dedicated to highlighting contemporary emerging artists from around the world.
Among the many submissions received, my artwork “Underwater” (120 x 100 cm) was pre-selected — a recognition that truly means a lot to me.
An Artwork That Continues Its Journey
“Underwater” explores depth, movement, and emotional fluidity. Through abstraction, the piece invites the viewer to dive into an inner landscape where sensations, memories, and states of being flow like invisible currents.
To see this artwork acknowledged within an international platform such as the IEAA is a beautiful reminder that when art is created with authenticity and intention, it resonates beyond borders.
Featured in the Best of IEAA Book — Page 67
I am also delighted to share that “Underwater” has been featured in the Best of IEAA book (page 67), a curated publication showcasing selected artists and works recognized during the award.
Being included in this book represents more than visibility — it is an opportunity to contribute to an international artistic dialogue and to share my creative universe within a wider community of artists and art lovers.
