This is my newest piece from the “Meditations” series that I have been working on and off since 2018. These works are meditations on time as a substance that continuously moves with and around us in the here and now, opposite to the linear perception of time typical for the West European culture. The circular perception of time comes from my growing up in Asia. Through “Meditations”, I see time as a space, as an infinite labyrinth with ever-changing walls and crossing paths, an image I find truly fascinating. The intricate pattern of sea waters pulls me in but also gives me an impulse to stop and reflect. It is enchanting, almost bewitching. Waters become a symbol of human minds, multilayered, ever-changing. Like sea waters, they have their depths, unreachable and intriguing. This piece was done in combination of dry and wet-on-wet pastel techniques.
