This smaller painting is an independent work that was created in the same space and story as the main canvas: Breath. It has fewer lines and only a few butterflies, which gives it a calmer and more focused character.
Its purpose is not to repeat the main message, but to offer a quieter view of the same theme. In the smaller painting, there are fewer lines, because life is not always shaped only by difficult moments. A person is also transformed through everyday experiences, the influence of their surroundings, and small moments that may at first seem insignificant. Chance and fortune also play an important role – a reminder that they often determine the direction of our path.
It relates to the large painting, but it also stands on its own – as a reminder that significant transformations are often born in silence and from small steps.
The main painting, Breath, tells the story of drops running downward – moments when life brings trials and difficulties. From these lines, butterflies are born, symbols of courage and strength, showing that from challenging situations a new perspective can grow. The painting reminds us that the path to growth is not always straightforward, but it is precisely the overcoming of hardships that strengthens a person and opens new possibilities.
