Joanna Glazer - Shakesp

In this work, freely inspired by William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, two ethereal figures seem to dance between dream and light. The blue figure, airy and almost liquid, reaches out toward an imaginary world where serenity, grace, and freedom mingle in a whirlwind of vibrant colors. Beside it, the violet figure evokes a fairy-like creature, fragile and mysterious, as if emerging from an enchanted night. The architecture bathed in orange and gold recalls ancient palaces or theatrical sets, while the magical tortoises scattered throughout the composition become symbols of wisdom, protection, and inner journeys. The words inscribed within the work—freedom, grace, home of serenity—reinforce this feeling of spontaneous poetry and emotional escape. Created in a free and contemporary style, blending watercolor, instinctive drawing and gestural writing, this painting invites the viewer to rediscover the imagination of childhood, the spirit of dreams and the gentleness of a fantastic universe where everything still seems possible.
