Venus - Imagine Series
(First Availability @ Imagine Launch Exhibition May 30, 2026)

Venus is part of the Imagine series, inspired by the celestial planets. Read more in my book called Imagine.

Drawing on the classical symbolism of the planet Venus — love, beauty, harmony, fertility, prosperity, and the Divine Feminine — the work reflects the ancient understanding of Venus as a celestial force of emotional connection, creativity, receptivity, and transformation. You may have heard "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus", reflecting the energetic polarity of these planetary archetypes, with Venus expressing the feminine principle.

Seven ethereal white doves, like a frozen moment of divine beauty, are poised before the Venus Rose at the heart of the composition. Formed by the orbital movement of Venus across an eight-year cycle, the Venus Rose is a sacred geometric pattern long associated with balance, rhythm, beauty, and divine order. Its cyclical form reflects themes of love, rebirth, renewal, and feminine consciousness.

The planets remind us that opposing energies seek balance. Masculine and feminine energies must exist in harmony — a perfect yin and yang — to imagine utopia. Perhaps the question is not whether balance is possible, but whether humanity is willing to return to it.
