This painting is from one part of the ‘All Things Come Back Together’ series under title ‘In Order’. It explores the structured , ordered and balanced periods of our lives through delicately outlined organic shapes inspired by nature.

About the series:

‘‘All Things Come Back Together’ is a unique collection of embossed acrylic and ink paintings made on paper, divided into two segments: 'Explosion' and 'In Order.' Through the use of organic, amorphous, fluid forms, and spontaneous brush strokes, the paintings evoke a sense of motion. The embossed elements, inspired by organic shapes in nature like flowers and petals, represent traces of past movements, illustrating the collapse of an ordered system that leads to explosions, or the other way around.

The abstract forms, reliefs, and brush strokes symbolize emotions, problems, or chaos as opportunities for what is disordered to be reorganized. The explosions subside, giving way to a new order.

“As human beings, we change, grow, and renew ourselves, often in cycles. This sometimes happens after life-altering experiences like falling in love, facing health problems, losing or finding someone new, getting divorced, being fired or starting a new job which lead to a big ‘explosion’, or a chaos. However, eventually, this chaos evolves into a new order, a fresh perspective or transforms into new stories, like after giving birth, settling down, getting used to the job, overcoming depression or heartbreak, and so on. We all experience similar cycles, which are inevitable patterns found in nature as well. Just like the transformation of cells, the water cycle from soil to rain, the journey of migrating birds, and the orbits of planets…”
