Abstract textured acrylic painting on canvas 120x100x4cm. Mixed Media on gallery wrapped canvas. The work is ready to hang. No framing required. The sides of the work are painted.
Original painting inspired by the poetic statement of Cesa Vestri "In The eye of the storm".
"In the eye of the storm.
If you can’t think positively then think and feel negatively.
Surrender to what you are fighting against.
Go straight into the middle of the storm.
With seeing eye put your finger into your wound.
What exactly is it that hurts you the most?
What exactly is it that seems most threatening to you?
Yes, exactly. Go there.
Feel the storm.
Inside you and around you.
Keep the focus towards your wound.
Immerse yourself in it. Feel it.
So long, until you are inside of it.
... and then it gets quiet.
Your thoughts become calm.
Your emotions become calm.
The threat is over.
The fight is over.
You are inside your inner center.
In the eye of your own storm.
It can still rage around you.
It's so far away now.
Was it really there?
Was it really threatening?
Messages appear.
You understand connections.
You start to smile.
All at once, you feel so light.
Where has the great burden gone that was just there?
What was it?
You can’t remember anymore.
You are inside yourself.
You are with you. (You are at your side)
You are
With.
You."
Gesa Vestri
I was reading this poetic statement of Cesa Vestri, when their powerful simplicity push me to try to convert it in visual art.
Here I use roses as an expression of the world of forms and the world of the formless too. The woman's black top symbolizes a heavy ego and a painful body, the tousled hair - heavy and confusing thoughts. Still, if you look cosely at the ego and look at the worthless thoughts, of you throw the light of attention on it, then there ist a transformation of emotions, then you separate form identification with ego, painful memories... form suffering.
