Description of the Artwork “Alethia: Layers of Memory and Truth”
Original mixed media artwork combining acrylic, collage, and pastel on canvas Size: 30 × 40 cm, ideal for intimate or statement wall placement Evocative design symbolizing memory, identity, and fragments of truth Features textures of newspaper, sheet music, and photographs for layered depth Perfect for collectors of symbolic, contemporary, and philosophical art Alethia – 30×40 cm, mixed media (acrylic, collage, pastel) on canvas is more than a painting — it is a mirror of human memory. The piece explores how fragments of our past define us: torn newspapers echoing stories, musical notes whispering emotions, and faded photographs lingering in our minds. The profile, incomplete yet profound, symbolizes the fragile and imperfect way we remember life. The title Alethia, from ancient Greek meaning truth or unveiling, reveals that memory is never whole. Instead, it reveals glimpses — fragments that weave together to shape identity.
