Meditation 198 (The Celestial Dance)

This work orchestrates a radiant, stained-glass geometry around a central dark aperture, as if the eye of the composition both absorbs and sanctifies the surrounding color. Concentric rings and interlocking arcs create a mandala-like pull—orderly yet playful—where warm oranges and yellows flare like a small sun while cool blues and greens temper the heat with a breath of distance. The crisp square boundary reads as a frame of containment, but the layered translucencies suggest permeability, hinting at perception itself: how the world’s brightness is filtered, focused, and finally gathered into a quiet, contemplative core.
