"Lithium Rising"Original Oil on Canvas

A powerful vertical composition that captures the essence of spiritual ascension and transformation. This striking work draws the eye upward through a carefully orchestrated symphony of flowing forms, sacred symbols, and luminous color.

At the heart of the composition, a bold red cross commands attention—a symbol of intersection between earthly and divine realms, between matter and spirit. The title "Lithium Rising" suggests both chemical transformation and spiritual elevation, evoking the alchemical process of turning base elements into something transcendent.

Notice the dynamic interplay of curved and straight lines: sinuous, flame-like forms rise from the bottom left, suggesting energy ascending from earth toward heaven. The circular motifs—yellow, blue, and concentric rings—echo the eternal cycles of creation, while the muted grays and earth tones ground the work in material reality even as it reaches toward the mystical.

Ducasse's masterful use of color creates subtle harmonies: cool blues and grays are punctuated by warm yellows and the sacred red of the cross. The pink trefoil at the bottom right adds a touch of organic life, perhaps representing the heart or a blooming spirit at the foundation of this rising energy.

Spiritual Symbolism: The cross represents the four directions, the meeting point of heaven and earth, protection and sacred power. The rising forms suggest the kundalini energy of spiritual awakening, or prayers ascending like smoke from sacred fires. The circular elements evoke vèvè symbols and the endless cycles of transformation.
