Artwork Description

Union

0.0 x 0.0

A state devoid of words, devoid of thoughts, where the illusionary veil of separation is lifted; allowing you, I, all to be one. My guess is that saints and experienced yogis might attain this degree of energetic connection regularly, but I've only experienced glimpses. Union represents the summit to me, of my climb up the Love side of the "Matrix of Love and Hate." It is my spiritual and emotional Mount Everest. I crafted this mandala in a meticulous fashion over the course of several months, layering colors and geometric forms together to create a vibrantly whole image of Union. Like me, it's not perfect, containing a bit of the human imperfection that Japanese artists embrace with their artistic concept of wabi-sabi. The painting hangs on the wall above the aquarium in our house. When I look at it, the swirl of my world seems to stop and I feel like I'm being transported home to my soul's core. It works like a charm...ahhh!
