Her art centres on the concept of invisible presence, breath, and transitional spaces. This piece exhibits her masterful execution of lyrical abstraction using oil on canvas, allowing for richer, more saturated layers than her works on paper. A vibrant halo of yellow, gold, and soft white arcs across a deep, atmospheric blue background, creating a celestial ring of light. Within this cosmic atmosphere, her signature motif—a floating, dark organic capsule—hovers near the top left, serving as a poignant visual anchor that represents a spiritual presence or an angel caught mid-flight.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e    •    Title:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Untitled (Abstract Cosmic Halo)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e    •    Year of Creation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1989 (\u003ci\u003eSigned and dated \"S.
