1+2, series Cyclicality
Acrylic, oil pastel on stretched canvas
The Cyclicality series describes the concept of perpetually repeating events, actions, thoughts, habits. This idea finds a place in many religions and was formed in ancient Egypt. The Pythagoreans associated cyclicality with world harmony.
At various times, symbols of eternal return were the scarab beetle, Ouroboros (a snake devouring its tail) - used in alchemy...
It is also impossible not to mention samsara, which reflects the endless cycle of rebirths and the search for liberation.
The concept of cyclicality may have different contexts, but one thing remains unchanged - the constant change of an object will sooner or later bring it back to its original state.
