Woven 22

We gravitate towards light. Whether to seek comfort, to seek meaning or to lose ourselves into something more than us. I’ve chosen delicate watercolors, specially the precious Ultramarine and Turquoise to show the lightness and airiness of the sky which is the inspiration for this piece.

Most religions have a connection with the sky, the planets, stars, the sun and the moon. Both Islam and Hinduism follow a lunar calendar and base significant events through it. The sky signifies heavenly bounty in the form of sunlight, rain and wind. The sky also holds a final destination of permanence. In most commonplace beliefs and thoughts, ‘we, the beings of earth, are to transcend the skies where our eternal erode lies.’

Medium: Artist watercolors on cold press paper

Size: 18" x 24"

SOLD - This piece was shown at Doug Adams Gallery, Berkeley in the show Drawing the Soul.
