“Hold me against you”, abstract painting by Julia A. Etedi

This artwork evokes the intensity of love, those moments when we feel deeply connected to another, as if the world around us fades away. It captures the first experiences shared with a loved one: the first coffee, the first dinner, the first weekend together… Moments where everything feels new, vibrant, filled with excitement and promise.

There is a childlike joy, an eager anticipation, that flutter in the stomach before a date. Each memory becomes a precious stone, building the story of a budding love. "Hold Me Against You" expresses this need for closeness, the desire to be held tightly, to prolong those fleeting moments where time seems to stand still.

Through fluid shapes and colors in motion, this artwork translates that unique energy—between exhilaration, tenderness, and intensity. A tribute to those moments that leave a mark on us and make our hearts beat a little faster.
