A painting from the "PERPETUUM FLORIUM" series. Quoting contemporary authors and using the works of Old Masters, the artist creates universes in which the world of nature and human feelings are intertwined. The past, the present and the future dissolve into each other and exist simultaneously there, breaking the illusion of linearity of time and prompting a dialogue about the Eternal.

Natalia uses pastel and velvet to create her works. They are mediums with maximum tactility, which allows her to enhance the realism of images, to emphasize the luxury of costumes and to recreate the velvety texture of colors, making them almost tangible.
