Albanian Fortified Tower House presents a cycle of paintings that encapsulates the suffering, resilience, sacrifices, and continuity that have shaped the history of the Albanian nation. At the center stands the fortified tower—an emblem of collective survival—around which unfold themes of resistance, dignity, and intergenerational endurance. Each painting reflects the tension between pain and strength, portraying the tower not merely as an architectural structure but as a metaphor for a national identity that has remained unbroken despite centuries of hardship.
