"Pulsation of Depths" is an attempt to paint that which has no form, but has rhythm.

Here, the body is a trajectory of energy: the path by which light enters matter and returns to its source. The golden sphere at the top is the very idea of the primal element, the point from which any sensation begins. From it, energy flows downward like a breath, condensing into form, acquiring weight, color, boundaries – all the way to the deep indigo at the base, where it momentarily freezes, compressed, before beginning its movement back.

The face with closed eyes in the center is a state. It is that point within a person where the external and internal cease to be distinct: a gaze turned inward sees more than a gaze turned outward.

Symmetry here is a way of thinking. It speaks of balance as a constant weighing – between tension and release, between form and dissolution. The red ramifications at the edges are a reminder that any closed structure still grows outward, seeks connection, cannot remain definitively separate.

"Pulsation" – because depth is never still. It breathes: contracting to its densest, darkest point – and then opening again, releasing what has matured within it.
