Reaching Peaceful Waters I (2015)


In several traditions, water symbolise the unconscious (unexplored depths, movement, power, emotions). In this work, Reaching Peaceful Waters symbolises the process of bringing the unconscious into conscious, the flourishing of the once hidden (seed) into beautiful flowers that let us grow into hidden parts of ourselves.

The dark and chaotic background reflects the tumultuous realms of the unconscious, influencing our actions beyond our conscious awareness. The importance of this process is to realise that all of these unconscious emotions, thoughts and perceptions are not who we are. We must free ourselves of this heavy burden. When all is gone, the eternal remains.
