And a placid sea
Symbolised creation
And Eternity.

Spirit Element: Air
£ 95.00 – £ 990.00 BUYAir belongs to a series of 5 paintings in art-ma’s collection, each relating to one of the classical elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Space. This collection created by Ovidiu Kloska, is a compilation of abstract paintings, featuring heavy textures in rich colours, resulting in contemporary artwork that is both fascinating and dramatic.
Air is a symbol of our soul, divinity, breath and strength and consciousness. Although the elements are significant across many cultures, in the Upanishad, an ancient scripture from Hinduism, it refers to the elements being used for spiritual growth.
“From Atman (your inner self) did space come into being;
from space, air; from air, fire;
from fire, the waters; from the waters, the earth;
from the earth, plants; from plants, food;
and from food, man…”
– Taittirīya UpaniṣhadIn this painting the big brush strokes of Acrylic in shades of blue, brown, yellow and green sweep across the canvas like the wind, creating a beautiful piece of artwork in Kloska’s series of the five elements.

Sleeping Angel
£ 95.00 – £ 400.00 BUYThis artwork by Italian artist Pietro Di Giovannantonio symbolises the belief common to different faiths, that we are never alone, there is always a guardian angel beside us – watching over us and protecting us.
Central to the painting is a sleeping angel, who is dressed in heavenly white and looks serene and calm. A golden ring of divine light surrounds the angel, who appears to be floating through the sky, as if in a dream.
This piece symbolises this intimate bond that our guardian angels share with us as they lead us to the path of righteousness. This guardian angel has descended onto earth from heaven above to protect its believer from evil and generate good and fruitful thoughts.

Lotus
£ 108.00 – £ 600.00 BUYThe Lotus flower, because of its unique transformation, has long been regarded as a symbol of enlightenment, purity, rebirth, and triumph over obstacles. While you certainly don’t need to follow a certain spiritual practice to draw inspiration from the lotus, this beautiful blossom holds specific meanings across a handful of traditions. In eastern culture, for example, the lotus is a symbol of revival and purity and in Ancient Egypt it is believed to have magical powers and can ressurect the dead.
The colours too of the Lotus have some significance. A white lotus, much like the one depicted in this artwork by Italian artist Patrizio Landolfi, symbolises purity of mind and an evolved spirit, whilst a yellow Lotus represents spiritual enlightenment. The Lotus flower is special in that it can bloom in the murkiest of waters becoming the most beautiful of flowers.
In this piece the lotus seems hidden behind a yellow veil, which can be interpreted as the Artist’s vision of humanity – a materialistic world devoid of any spiritual awakening, unless we cleanse this thought process, the meaning of life and death will continue to elude us.
