Queen’s Moods


In “Queen’s Moods”, Yuroz presents 66 unique female archetypes with varying color palettes, pairing different elements in each composition as he puts the wide spectrum of female emotions on brimming display.  Using symbolism, “Queen’s Moods” attempts to demystify female archetypes by dissecting the factors that evoke deep and sometimes unconscious responses. 
 
Pomegranates – Pomegranates on Yuroz’s Queens depict a nurturing and procreating female.  Pomegranates symbolize creativity, sexuality, and the survival spirit of the female specie.  They represent progress and growth, and a life source coveted by the female in search of her match.
 
Doves – Doves symbolize peace, freedom, purity, and grace.  A dove represents female communication with one’s intuition and the emotional language of others to achieve inner balance, healing, peace, and joy.
 
Lioness – A lioness is a hunter, leader, collaborator, and communal female.  She is bold and fierce on one hand but gentle and nurturing on the other, a quintessential symbol of divine sisterhood and female power.
 
Wolf – The wolf symbolizes guardianship with a loyal, spirited, and ritualistic disposition that makes quick and firm emotional attachments as it trusts its instincts.  Yuroz’s Queen with a wolf image on display hints at her commitment to her pack, her tribe, and her community.  
 
Rose – Rose means love.  A bouquet of roses on Yuroz’s Queen lays bare a woman’s compassion toward her loved ones.  Since blue roses do not exist in nature, the bouquet of blue roses in  “Queen’s Moods” symbolizes mystery or the effort to attain the impossible.
 
Gold Koi – Fish is a symbol of abundance, fortune, and good luck.  Gold color is the color of wealth and high status.  Known universally as a symbol of strength, perseverance, love, bravery, and dedication, gold Koi fish is synonymous with harmony and happiness.
 
A couple’s faces – A couple’s faces in “Queen’s Moods” symbolize a female who values a conscious romantic relationship created purposefully, decisively, with intention and clarity for growth.   She looks for a counterpart that is willing to have tough conversations and is committed to doing the work.  The reward she seeks is a relationship that meets the most fundamental needs for security, love, respect, and belonging.
 
A man’s head – For the first time, Yuroz depicts full-frontal the dark energy of female manipulation, and her need to control her male, symbolized by a man’s head being paraded on the Queen’s hat.  
 
A long tongue – A striking long tongue metaphorically symbolizes the person’s desire to be heard and the fearlessness to speak his or her mind.   
 
Colors and patterns made their way to the backdrops of “Queen’s Moods”, typifying the universality of female archetypes across nationalities, cultures, and time span.  From the suits on a deck of cards that represents the pillars of the economy in the Middle Ages, to the different currencies in circulation in today’s economy, and the colors of different flags of the numerous countries, “Queen’s Moods” is the Morse code of relationship management and an insightful body of work that elucidates the riddle of the female condition universally.
