Spine

The concept of this mixed media work struck me while I was meditating in yoga. While I appreciate the connection between my body, nature, and mind, I express the profound relationship among them, displaying that this connection is both fragile and inseparable. The spine is made of air-dry clay; it symbolizes the pillars of life, with an abstract landscape painted in purple—representing spirituality and imagination—and green—illustrating harmony and vitality. In a moment of inspiration, I sketched some architectural lines with pencil on the painting, as they remind me of structural integrity that supports presence and dominance.
