Flying Over Prague

950 

This painting is my personal dialogue with the city I now call home. Prague revealed itself to me not just as architecture, but as a feeling — magical, vibrant, almost childlike.

Description

The girl on the bicycle symbolizes a dream, a sense of freedom and lightness. She isn’t simply riding — she’s flying above the city, unhindered by gravity or boundaries.

Her dress is made up of a mosaic of colors, like fragments of memories and emotions. I deliberately distorted proportions: the bicycle looks like a toy, the houses like blocks, and the sky is stitched from pieces of colored fabric. This isn’t the adult’s gaze — it’s the imagination of a child, unbound by rules.

I wanted the viewer to feel that a city is not just a place, but an emotion. And if you’re brave enough, you too can rise above your reality — even if only in your imagination.
