Morituri Nolumus mori
"In 'Morituri Nolumus Mori,' I pay homage to the fallen warriors and gladiators of the Colosseum—an arena that stands as both witness and participant in the theater of history. The title, translating to 'We who are about to die, do not want to,' echoes the resilience and spirit of those who faced the arena's challenges. This work is a contemplation on the profound connection between the Colosseum and spirituality, where the echoes of ancient battles resonate with the timeless struggle of the human spirit. It invites viewers to reflect on the sacrifices made in this grand amphitheater, transcending physical brutality to reveal the spiritual strength that endures."
