Translated into visual terms from spiritual intuitions, the contemplative artwork depicts the generative source from which all phenomena manifest, by which all things are sustained, and to which all things reintegrate. Furthermore, my work inquires how the viewer, upon closely contemplating visual relationships, can be incited to penetrate limited perception of time and space such that an open space for direct insight into the basis of Being becomes possible. By revealing inner relationships and processes of perceptual awareness, the works of art aim to trigger the unfolding of spacious and clear recognition. This is fundamental to my investigation of visual media’s capacity to spontaneously evoke an immediate awareness of reality independent of any reasoning process.
