Have the Strength to Be in Joy, Maasai – Original Painting, 89 x 116 cm

With its vibrant geometry and luminous palette, Have the Strength to Be in Joy pays tribute to the Maasai people, whose culture is imbued with vitality, resilience, and a deep sense of belonging.

At the heart of the composition, a radiant mandala unfurls like a sacred shield, echoing the ornamentation of Maasai beadwork. The concentric circles and meticulously detailed patterns evoke both protection and celebration, suggesting that true strength lies in the courage to embrace joy.

The bold contrasts of red, blue, yellow, and white form an energetic symphony, embodying the dual forces of grounding and transcendence. Beyond its cultural inspiration, this painting becomes a universal meditation on resilience — a reminder that joy is not a passive state but a force to be claimed, cultivated, and defended.

For collectors, curators, and interior designers, Have the Strength to Be in Joy offers not only an artwork but also a declaration of vitality, capable of transforming any space into a sanctuary of strength and light.
