About the Artwork
Proteus, the shape-shifting sea god of Greek mythology, could foresee the future but revealed his knowledge only to those who could hold onto him through every transformation. His myth speaks of patience, resilience, and the courage to confront uncertainty without turning away. In this watercolor, one figure gently holds another's face, watching it transform while remaining completely still. The scene reimagines the myth as an act of quiet wit
