The Art of Awareness :

Meditative Triology

My vision is to bring the art of awareness to the world in a mindful, relaxing way that elevates our well-being. And in times of creative exploration, I created a series of digital paintings to express the indescribable sensation within us, which is our hearts' yearning for constancy in a rapidly changing world.

Living in a fast-paced world of our time, change refuses to slow down. We almost feel like we are losing solid ground to stand on. It feels like we want to go deeper inside ourselves to seek answers to all the whys. While many enquiries remain unresolved, our internal conversations only create more turmoil. By coming up with “THE ART OF AWARENESS: Meditative Triology”, I intend to start a new conversation with the world, responding to our need in the now. And if we pay attention, we can be aware of subtle messages emerging from our hearts, awaiting us to get in touch with them.

This series of Digital Paintings represents a “Meditative Triology - Possibilities, Flow, Creation”. During the creation process, these compelling visual images came through me one after another, just like secret messages awaiting decipherment - regarding the discovery of a new pathway in life. Altogether, it serves as “a visual retreat sequence" for our minds and hearts. This is an artistic way to invite ourselves to tap into the vast psychological space and the constancy within us that we have no time to explore before. As if it is “an inner gateway” into a refreshing future, allowing me to encounter a sea of possibilities, go with the flow, and participate in new creations. I become motivated to share the experience of opening up to the dimension of stillness and wellness, which truly matters to us.

I want my art to elevate our living spaces and serve as a mindful experience that enhances people’s lives from within - both physically and emotionally - as it provides the audience with a calm space to have a quality, peaceful time with themselves. The overall blue colour tone signifies timelessness, infinity, and vastness - evoking a sense of calmness. It intends to create a quiet, meditative space for inspiration. This can be a very uplifting experience that contributes to the future of our holistic wellness ongoingly.

To my surprise, this art piece has gone through a long-time incubation period without me noticing, because to meet and greet my deepest self is not a linear journey. And this artwork just manifests itself as a channel of expression that signifies my own transformation. I am more of a cross-disciplinary creative that has been transforming over time - from fine arts to advertising, branding, to digital media and exhibition experience design. What keeps me going is my urge to create. Although my love for abstract painting is always there inside me, my internal drive to draw has been put in sleep mode for years. The world’s rapid changes have led me to come back to my inner world, develop self-awareness, and reignite my passion. Instead of using traditional media, I now dive into digital painting, which is a natural move for me to make for further discoveries. The art of awareness is making sense beyond myself, and I believe it is a universal quest to reflect on the purpose of art in our lives, for the future of our humanity and the path to well-being.
