This is a painting of my grandmother "Édes" and her sister. Enlarged from a small black-and-white photograph.
I painted them with Transylvanian soil—the land where they lived and to which they belonged—to create their faces and bodies.
I applied acrylics over this soil, but their features and limbs remained the essence of the earth, symbolizing their deep connection to the land and their heritage.
