Art Description

In Sanskrit, the word "Bija" (literally seed) is used to describe a beginning or origin. This painting is a primordial one. It is volatile and turbulent but still manages to maintain a transcendent calm. In this way I have shaped it to reflect genesis or origination. The universe, on both the macro- and the micro-scale, manifests in volatility and intense transformation even as it remains calm and harmonious, in alignment with a cosmic organization. The colors and composition of this piece are directly influenced from a midnight climb to the top of active Volcan de Pacaya in Central Guatemala for spectacular close-up encounters with molten magma emerging from Earth. www.julianvadas.com
