The Story
Upon entering into the contemplative state of mind, a figure stares within - into the soul where the mind and heart meets with everything in between.
It is like peering into a maze.
In this composition, the maze is depicted as a plethora of lines and dots. They symbolize the fundamental building blocks of language creation, yet to be orchestrated into a meaningful piece.
In this chaotic space, I sit and ponder on the meaning these lines and dots could carry — to seek out my truth and coax it into my day-to-day doings.
This painting was one of 13 that were exhibited on Eissey Theatre’s gallery wall.

Contemplation Series
“As we journey through life, we find ourselves cocooned in contemplation at various junctions — in search of enlightenment and some form of understanding of ourselves.
This journey is symbolized by the mandala crowning our heads. Each of us have different and maybe similar rings of sacred truths which we have uncovered in our contemplative wanderings. Truths that we have come to realize makes us who we are as individuals. And as a community, we create a lush kaleidoscopic landscape of experiences to explore.
In our contemplation, we evolve and draw closer to being our most authentic selves. That’s the beauty of the process.“
