Meditation Series

“Silence is essential. We need silence, just as much as we need air, just as much as plants need light. If our minds are crowded with words and thoughts, there is no space for us.” 

-Thich Nhat Hanh

Meditations is created to inspire mindfulness. In today’s ever-shifting world, particularly in the fraught headlines of geopolitics, the apocalypse that is AI, and pervasive social media, this series promotes centered calmness amid an otherwise turbulent sea. Inspired by a myriad of sources, including Zen Buddhist koans, Josef Albers’ Impossibles, Mark Rothko’s color field paintings, and Thich Nhat Hanh’s book on Silence, the work invites the viewer to disconnect and spend quiet time in reflection and observation, even if just for a moment.

The work draws inspiration from opposing forces: elaborate and distilled, ethereal and solid, frenetic and still, organic and geometric. Perhaps spending time reflecting on these dichotomies, an earnest, more honest self-awareness can be discovered, one divorced from reels and feeds.
