FLAME SERPENT GUARDIAN
FLAME SERPENT GUARDIAN is a modern work that revisits the Ramakien.
This captivating piece illustrates the eternal struggle between good and evil through a dynamic composition and vibrant colors.
Symbolism and Themes
The work depicts a heroic figure, possibly Phra Ram or Hanuman, engaged in an intense battle against serpents, symbols of chaos and malevolence. This duel illustrates not only the conflict between order and disorder, but also universal values such as courage, loyalty, and the triumph of virtue.
The interaction between fire, represented by flames enveloping the central figure, and water, evoked by the blue background and swirling waves, emphasizes the balance between opposing forces.
Fire symbolizes purification and the destruction of evil, while water represents life, tranquility, and the flow of time.
Techniques and Artistic Approach
The artist uses contrasting colors to enhance the work's dynamism: blue, representing calm and divinity, contrasts with fiery orange, symbolizing energy and conflict.
By combining traditional materials, such as gold leaf and lacquer, with modern techniques like acrylic, the artist creates a rich and complex texture.
