In Alchemy, transformation is presented as both spiritual and material responsibility. Inspired by the Magician of the tarot and Hermetic tradition, the painting depicts the four elements—earth, air, fire, and water—woven into braids. A golden halo illuminates the figure, while mineral birds hold a cloak aloft, symbolizing transmutation and the delicate balance of sacred knowledge. The work reflects on humanity’s power to shape matter and spirit, and the consequences when such power is misused.
