If I Were a Sagittarius reflects on the longing to explore beyond the familiar and the desire to keep expanding one’s inner and outer world. At the center of the composition, a striking horse’s head is naturally joined with two faces carrying different expressions, all connected by stitches as parts of a larger whole. The side-facing figure in the foreground is covered in a light blue starry sky, suggesting a vast inner universe and an openness to distant possibilities. Behind her, a second figure emerges with a bright smile. Her head is filled with the shape of a maze-like garden, while her arms are covered with maps and three figures gazing through a telescope, evoking curiosity, movement, and the desire to discover what lies beyond the horizon. Set against orange linen and nebulae glowing with orange-yellow and blue light, the work unfolds within a vibrant landscape full of energy and momentum. Rather than portraying exploration as escape, the composition considers it as a way of growing, searching, and imagining more expansive ways of being. It invites viewers to reflect on what they are truly looking for when they feel drawn toward distant places, new experiences, and unknown paths.
