Fresh Breeze by RETNA is a striking example of contemporary street art fused with abstract calligraphy. This original painting, rendered in cool turquoise enamel on canvas, showcases RETNA’s signature coded script—a unique visual language inspired by global alphabets including Arabic, Hebrew, and Asian calligraphic forms.
In this 2025 work, RETNA balances precision and spontaneity. The dense vertical arrangement of glyphs is softened by drips, bleeds, and soft-edged strokes that break the rigidity of the grid. The result is a visual rhythm that feels both controlled and free, like language carried on a shifting breeze.
The turquoise palette brings a refreshing lightness to RETNA’s typically bold compositions, creating a piece that feels open, energetic, and atmospheric. Fresh Breeze blurs the boundary between abstraction and writing, tradition and rebellion, form and feeling.
Ideal for collectors of turquoise abstract art, urban fine art, or graffiti-inspired painting, this work is a powerful addition to any contemporary collection.
