APHRODITE'S BIRTH

APHRODITE'S BIRTH

Birth requires a violence we later forget.

Before form, there was pressure, matter shifting, something forcing its way through where there was not yet room for it.

Aphrodite rises from the water, but the myth softened the scene too much. No birth leaves us intact. Something is left behind, and something arrives not yet knowing what to do with its body.

Beauty retains the memory of that upheaval.

Material & Finish

WOOD · Hand-Finished Artwork on Wood

Each artwork is created on wooden panels through a hands-on process in which the image is carefully integrated into the surface.

Specially selected paper is moistened and bonded to the wood, allowing the image to incorporate the natural texture and irregularities of the material.

The surface is then individually worked by hand through sanding, patination and finishing with natural wax.

The result is an artwork with its own material depth, character and subtle variations, where the wooden surface becomes an integral part of the image.

Each piece is individually hand-finished and signed by Antonio Mora.
