The Artist And The Monk

Symbols of transition have been a focus of my art for some years now. Windows, Doors, Pathways.

Transitions can be understood in many ways: as space, ie. going from place to place, moving house, changing your job, travelling. It can also be symbolic for a shift in perception, an awakening, or shift in consciousness; for example an experience in prayer, a grief that changes your view of life, a friendship that allows you to see the world differently, an inner healing. Sometimes on your journey you may need to take a break, have a coffee, express your experience in an art form, cross a bridge, walk for a while, rest, take it in.

Now I’d like to share with you some of the next series and hope you enjoy this mini online exhibition.
