BETWEEN BLOOM AND BONE – Diptych – “Threshold in Bloom”

Skulls and leaves, opposing faces, saturated tones — Threshold in Bloom explores a symbolic threshold: between life and death, memory and loss, color and disappearance.
This illustration is the culmination of a broader reflection on transitions — biological, emotional, spiritual. Two human profiles face outward, separated by a crown of skulls, while a tangle of climbing plants rises behind them. The vibrant color palette suggests growth and resilience, even as the imagery evokes decay and departure.

The piece was also brought to life as a large-scale mural (2.10 × 2.10 m), painted live at the ZikZac Festival 2025 in Aix-en-Provence. This performative context gave the composition a monumental presence, grounding the image in the physical and public space.

Printed in a limited, signed edition exclusively for Arteaporte, Threshold in Bloom invites viewers to pause where life and death coexist — not in conflict, but in fragile dialogue.
