Triumphant, 2016

The image that resonates most in this colourful and vibrant painting is the centered white pathway which metaphorically symbolizes the sacred spiritual cave. It behaves like an underworldwhere we make contact with powers and forces which eventually make their way into the world of light. Inlegends and fairy tales caves epitomize portals, kind of special places for discovering mysteries and treasures and are often the site for spiritual and initiation ceremonies. As a powerful place, the cave is closely related to the symbolic heart where the self and ego unite. The pathway into caves involves a directness toward core and away from periphery, toward depth and away from surface, toward concentration and away from dispersion in all the spheres of life.
