From the Silence is Golden Series
Acrylics on panel ø100cm
Bathed in the quiet shimmer of gold, she listens to the silence between stars—searching, not with eyes, but with memory.
In Where Starlight Remembers You, Marissa Oosterlee continues her Silence is Golden series, merging intricate Japanese motifs with ethereal storytelling. The figure, draped in a richly embroidered kimono, stands still in a moment between worlds. Her beloved has vanished—not lost, but absorbed into the cosmos. And yet, somewhere in the flicker of celestial light, she feels him still.
This work is a meditation on connection beyond presence, on how love imprints itself into memory, matter, and sky.
Through acrylics and real gold leaf, Oosterlee explores beauty, longing, and self-reflection, inviting the viewer into a silent world where memory and starlight intertwine.
