Phases of Her Radiance (2025)

Original Fine Art by Ashvin Harrison
The soul turns through phases of being illuminated.

Artwork Description:

Phases of Her Radiance is an original fine art nude by Ashvin Harrison — a focus on the cyclical nature of existence, feminine strength, and the radiant interplay between body, cosmos, and time. This visionary piece blurs the boundary between hyperreal portraiture and celestial abstraction, inviting the viewer into a moment where human form and universal motion converge.

At the heart of the composition, a nude female figure rises in exquisite charcoal detail — dignified, serene, and unwavering. Her posture is strong yet graceful, head tilted upward as though surrendering to the cosmic tide. The lifelike rendering of her body, achieved through Harrison’s masterful charcoal brushing technique, reveals both anatomical truth and emotional resonance, making her presence both intimate and infinite.

From her crown erupts an extraordinary cascade of abstraction: waves of gold, pink, blue, and black splashes ignite the canvas, swirling outward in torrents of energy. The movement arcs across the composition like constellations unfurling in real time. Interwoven within the painted storm float three planetary spheres — silent markers of lunar-like phases, tethering the work to the cycles of nature, memory, and becoming.

This is not mere hair, nor simple background — it is radiance externalised, thought and spirit dispersed into the vastness. Harrison’s evolving Motusrealism style shines here: the realism of the figure anchors the viewer, while the expressive splashes and planetary orbs catapult the imagination into infinite orbit. Every stroke suggests transformation; every planet whispers of time’s rhythm.

The piece becomes an intimate yet cosmic dialogue — between self and universe, stillness and chaos, flesh and starlight. Phases of Her Radiance is less a portrait than a state of being, an artwork where beauty is not only seen but felt across cycles, dimensions, and moments.
