A BEAUTY OF MESS

Then came Covid-19. The devastating pandemic brought along unprecedented hardship and uncertainty. It unfolded a whole new circumstance and a cocktail of emotions that are both confusing and thrilling. Complacency was impossible to maintain now. And so by sheer luck brought forth by the worldwide economic shutdown,I had found the time and courage to reflect on my priorities and return to that which motivated me most. Balancing chaos and order with paint brushes. A paint brush in one hand, a color palette in the other and a blank canvas laid bare in front of me ready to manifest my emotions and reality that go beyond language. 

 

The result is such a mess. Chaotic. But refreshingly truthful. I was reminded by my own abstract paintings that in life, there is entropy. And living life is all about learning how to deal with entropy well enough to find joy in moments of order and certainly.
