Tattvamasi 10

This work stages a meditative orbit: concentric cells in oxidized turquoise radiate from a muted core, as if the painting were both an eye and a fossilized mandala. The right half’s disciplined, tessellated rhythm suggests systems—memory, architecture, or ritual—while the left dissolves into striated currents, where order frays into weather and time. Copper-brown ground and sea-glass highlights create an alchemical light that feels unearthed rather than illuminated, turning surface texture into a record of pressure, growth, and quiet persistence. In the tension between grid and drift, the piece proposes renewal as a cyclical act—structure continually softened by the elements that made it.
