A turquoise-blue cat with long, silky hair and a luxurious fluffy tail gracefully lurks in the center of the composition. Its silhouette is both stately and fairy-tale-like, as if it came out of a dream where baroque excess is combined with oriental decorative flatness. Peonies bloom lushly in the background - they are not just a background, but a theatrical curtain of petals spilling over the canvas in lush strokes. The flowers remind us of the Rococo style: playful, sensual, rich in textures and layers. At the same time, the whole composition remains flat, almost graphic, like a print or a decorative panel. This work is about duality. About the richness of the form and the calmness of the surface. About the predatory grace of the cat and the soft, feminine environment in which it lives. She is the mistress of ornament, the guardian of dreams and the keeper of visual poetry.
