Serena 2025– digital painting. A pictorial exploration suspended between vulnerability and strength, where the female body becomes a space for reflecting on identity, incompleteness, and becoming. The red marks and rough brushstrokes do not define but suggest — evoking a process in motion, a state of transformation. Her direct gaze, paired with the partially constructed form, creates a tension between presence and absence, flesh and thought, leaving the viewer to complete the meaning. https://www.instagram.com/michelepetrelliart/
