Recent news of forest fires in Indonesia & the haze crossing national borders brought me back to a painting I made last year, The Silent Notes.

I found myself looking at it again. For quite some time. Something felt strangely unsettling. Not because the painting depicted what is happening today, but because its atmosphere seemed so close to the reality unfolding before us. When I painted it, I was contemplating human existence within the vastness of the cosmos. How small we are, and how fragile our world can be. Through @gwensilent, a figure without a mouth, holding the Earth in her hands, I tried to express something beyond words.

The painting was originally about silent musical notes, memories, emotions, & unspoken thoughts. A certain restlessness beneath the silence. Something stirring, even when everything appeared still.

I am reminded of Carl Jung's idea that not everything emerging from within us is fully conscious. Perhaps artistic intuition sometimes gives form to things we have yet to understand.

Can artists sense something before they truly understand what they have sensed?

I don't know...

I would never call it a prophecy. Nor would I ever wish for something terrible to happen. Quite the opposite. Perhaps a painting is never truly finished when the artist puts down the brush. Time passes, events unfold, and old works return to us with meanings we never anticipated.

I look at Gwen Silent again. She remains still, holding her little world. Nothing in the painting has changed.
Perhaps only the way I see it has. And amid everything happening today, I hold on to one simple hope.
May our Earth be well. ๐˜š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜บ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฒ๐˜ถ๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜บ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด.
