Where I Return
“Where I Return” is one of my most instinctive works created not only from thought, but from feeling. The deep blue figure at the center represents the human spirit stripped of identity, roles, expectations, and noise. It’s a silhouette of the true self raw, simple, and honest. The body is positioned in a posture of grounding, as if melting into the earth, surrendering to something bigger and wiser than the mind.
Greens, blues, and golden tones mix together to form a living landscape like a forest, an emotional field, the inner garden of the soul. Nothing is perfectly defined because healing is not precise, it is chaotic, fluid, intuitive.
The figure dissolves into the environment because I believe that when we return to nature, we return to ourselves. The world tells us to be productive, perfect, and controlled. But nature invites us to be real, evolving, imperfect, alive.
Every color in this painting symbolizes a dimension of the inner world:
- Deep green for growth and grounding
- Blue for serenity, truth, and introspection
- Gold for the quiet power awakening within us
The abstract strokes reflect the emotional storms we navigate, but also the beauty that comes when we let go of resistance. This piece is about reconnecting not with society, but with the self we abandoned along the way.
“Where I Return” is my reminder that peace is not out there, it is found when we come back to our own nature, when we breathe with the earth, when we remember who we are beneath everything we pretend to be.
