Love Series 1 (In the Garden of Love)

Two figures lean into one another with eyes closed, their faces simplified into quiet, sculptural planes that turn the act of kissing into a meditation rather than a spectacle. A tapestry of lotus blossoms presses in from every edge, their pale pink rhythm and fine linear veining counterpointing the mottled, earth-toned bodies, as if tenderness is being sheltered by nature’s own iconography of renewal. The compressed space and interlaced hands dissolve any boundary between self and other, suggesting love as a shared sanctuary where time slows and the world becomes fragrant, hushed, and inward.
