JOURNEY (Part One of the ODYSSEY Series)
JOURNEY, the first part of MARKEL's ODYSSEY series, is a monumental exploration of self-discovery, resilience, and transformation. This large-scale painting serves as a visual manifestation of an internal odyssey—a journey through the trials of life, society’s expectations, and the search for meaning. It is a profound statement on what it means to reclaim oneself after feeling used up and cast aside, confronting the vast possibilities of who we can become when we finally turn inward and give ourselves the attention, love, and patience we deserve.

MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST
MARKEL transmutes philosophical rebellion into monumental mixed-media landscapes, wielding spray paint and acrylic like alchemical weapons across increasingly massive canvases. Each work becomes a battleground where totemic figures rise through layered pigments—spray paint's raw urgency colliding with acrylic's deliberate depth. He's not just creating art; he's expanding a visual universe that grows more intricate and immense with each iteration. Totemic figures rise from his work like primordial memories; primordial archetypes erupt from his canvases like spectral memories; ancestral shadows materialize, bleeding through the membrane between myth and perception. With each new project, MARKEL's vision threatens to consume entire walls, entire rooms, entire perceptual boundaries—a relentless expansion of artistic consciousness that refuses to be contained.
These aren't paintings to match your living room decor—they're unflinching cartographies of inner wilderness, designed to crack open whatever fragile narratives you've constructed about reality.
