Guardian of the forest

There is no writer, poet, painter or artist in general who has not dedicated one or more works to the cat.

In this artwork, Giada Zammitti interprets the essence of catness, i.e. the spirit that has always made the cat a metaphysical creature, an interface between it and the higher states of Being, and a living bridge.
The cat is characterised by an immaculate purity, a magical beauty, hypnotic eyes, a majestic and playful gait at the same time; he is powerful, without ever manifesting violence; but, above all, in him, and through him, there is an emergence of eternity in time; since his entire being is an instantaneousness without duration.

In this magnificent work of digital art, a gigantic black cat dominates and imposes itself, whose eyes vibrate with a hypnotic and bewitching density.
It is the synthesis of its surroundings, its supreme symbol.
The three imposing trees among which he lies seem to guard his sacredness, against the backdrop of an immaculate forest, illuminated by a light that blends the radiance of dawns and the stillness of sunsets.

The maiden with her back turned, the only human presence allowed in this otherworld, contemplates this manifestation of the Sacred with awe, resting her open hands on one of the trees, acting as a portal between the human and the worlds of pure majesty. Her white dress suggests her inner purity, a necessary condition for her task as ‘guardian of the Sacred Forest’.

The glow of the forest is punctuated by stray glitter, which seems to dance festively around the King, the pure majesty of him, the Cat.

In short, an aesthetically masterful, symbolically perfect work.
