The painting titled "Upstairs," is a vibrant, symbolic work of art that blends mystical and architectural elements. At the center is a staircase shaded in pink and purple hues, drawing the viewer upward toward a radiant golden eye — symbolizing enlightenment or divine perception — framed within a stylized Hamsa hand. The path is flanked by symmetrical rows of dark archways, suggesting a journey through duality or choices. Explosions of color — yellows, blues, and oranges — radiate from the central eye, evoking an intense spiritual or cosmic energy. The piece overall feels like a metaphorical ascension toward higher knowledge, inner truth, or awakening.
