“Hiraya” is a commissioned digital semi-surrealist painting, deriving its name from the Filipino term meaning “the fruit of one’s hopes, dreams, and aspirations,” while visually interpreting Elpis, the goddess of hope. 

Within this illustration, various symbols associated with hope are portrayed, accentuating the core concept of the piece. The use of brown tones and blotchy brush strokes not only aligns with the look of ancient artforms but also evokes a sense of spiritual embodiment.
