About the artist
Marko Bello's artistic disposition comes from a self-honed style influenced by realism and infused with expressive abstraction. His work aims to ground themes such as intimacy, vulnerability, and human connection through dense mediums and provocative lighting. Bello's paintings emphasize emotional truths made apparent through the body, expressing life's deepest wisdoms.

Description
Is the highest form of love visible to the naked eye? Marko Bello's "Love Above All" hopes to serve as proof.

The canvas focuses on two figures wrapped in an embrace. Against the noise of erratic brush strokes, their faces remain serene as if they were meant to be found in each other's arms. In this piece, great love transcends affection only to settle into tenderness. Warmth radiates from the center of the joined figures with the larger of the two echoing a passionate yet dissipating red—even the strongest of loves must be  restrained to be expressed.
