This exhibition brings together a body of abstract paintings that balance the lyrical with the unexpected, the delicate with the indulgent. The title, “Chocolate for a Swan” evokes an image of offering something rich, excessive, and even absurd to a creature associated with elegance, purity, and grace.

The works explore this tension between heaviness and lightness, sweetness and austerity, surface pleasure and hidden depth. Layers of paint overlap like histories folded into each other, at times lush and velvety, at times fractured and fragile.

Much like the improbable gift in the title, the paintings invite viewers to consider the relationship between what nourishes and what overwhelms, between the natural and the artificial, between desire and restraint. The show becomes a meditation on gesture, memory, and contradiction - a reminder that beauty often emerges from unlikely encounters.
