Uslada's painting "Sovereignty" draws from the majestic San Salvatore mountain, symbolizing inner strength and echoing Latvian poets' themes of freedom. A central boat with crimson sails honors a family tale, reimagined as self-reliance in pursuing dreams without saviors, celebrating spiritual resilience.

The solitary sorceress hides her exuberance in icy fortresses for ages, her wild heart dormant amid suppression. Finally, it stirs to life, embodying isolation, buried energy, and profound rebirth.

Rose tinted glasses is a metaphor which symbolises a call for the artist to paint boldly and soar to imaginative peaks, defying advice to abandon them for practicalities. They serve as a gateway to freedom, masterpieces, and enchanting realms of beauty and inspiration.

Trapped in a cage, she overcomes fear to shatter bonds and reject servitude, spreading wings in liberation. This newfound freedom enables magical acts and a self-authored history, highlighting empowerment and innate liberty.

The poem Secret Desire by Uslada ties to a 2013 painting, emphasizing unspoken longings as keys to personal renewal.
