“Child of Smoke and Shadows (Rat)” is a centerpiece work from the artist’s Zodiac Series, a collection that reinterprets the twelve animals of the Eastern zodiac with modern surrealism and oil-painting textures.
In this piece, the rat—symbol of intuition, rebirth, and resilience—rests on the shoulder of a young woman whose closed eyes and drifting smoke suggest a moment suspended between reality and dream.
Rendered in a hybrid style blending oil-paint impasto, cinematic lighting, and fine-detail illustration, the artwork evokes both vulnerability and wild instinct.
The scattered red strokes symbolize life, memory, and the fragile boundary between beauty and violence.
A powerful statement piece for collectors who seek emotionally charged contemporary art.
