The Royal Gala

Alina Elena Jitari


The Royal Gala

DESCRIZIONE

An artwork ilustrating an apple. At first glance, you may think that it is just a simple fruit, but through this symbolic portrait I wanted to tranform it into a dignified figure, a playful metaphor, inspired by its variety name - Royal Gala and the timeless cultural importance of apples. By dressing the apple in regal clothes, I wanted to celebrate the nobility of a fruit that has been so present on our existance from myths and fairytales to his role as a health symbol and daily life staple.


ISPIRAZIONE

I found inspiration in the name Royal Gala apple, which suggest both a crown and festivity. It was almost inviting me for personification. Behind everything, I wanted to show how something so simple can carry hidden importance. The work invites viewers to look again at the ordinary and discover the nobility within it.
