About the artwork
The Secret Dance is a dreamlike piece showing a dolphin swimming through the ocean at night, creating splashes that turn into petals and flowers—as if performing a hidden ritual. The final transformation of the dolphin into a flower continues the artist’s exploration of blooming as a visual and symbolic theme. Set to an original, festive soundtrack, the work invites reflection on beauty, mystery, and the unseen rhythms of nature.
