Some quick walls I’ve painted recently exploring the inner cosmos

Over the past few months, I’ve been diving into a new series of murals that are part of an ongoing exploration I’m calling “Inner Universe: A Journey Through the Self.”
This project has grown out of a deep, personal reflection, centered around what I call the inner universe, a symbolic and emotional space where identity, consciousness, and transformation all collide.

What the inner universe means to me

For me, the inner universe is like a mirror of the cosmos: vast, mysterious, and full of energy. Just as space holds galaxies and hidden forces, our internal world carries layers of thought, emotion, and unanswered questions.
It’s a space I return to often in my work, not to find conclusions, but to get closer to the unknown parts of myself.

Painting the inner journey

In each mural, I use recurring symbols, cosmic patterns, keys, portals, masks…. to navigate this internal terrain. These elements aren’t just visual: they serve as markers or waypoints in a journey through the self.
Every wall is like a fragment of a bigger story, and through these pieces, I try to invite others to reflect on their own inner spaces, too.

The journey continues

This series is still in progress, I’m in the middle of it, and I don’t fully know where it will lead yet.
But with each wall, I feel like I’m uncovering something new: another layer of the inner cosmos brought to life through form, color, and symbolism.

These are a few of the most recent pieces from the series and more are coming soon.
