evolutionary harmony

The painting captures the intricate journey of human evolution, a balance between spiritual ascension and earthly grounding. At the pinnacle of the artwork, the enneagram symbol with an all-seeing eye at its core dominates. This eye symbolizes divine omniscience and the origin of all creation. Radiating outward from the enneagram’s nine points are vibrant, sperm-like droplets in nine distinct colors, each representing unique energies, perspectives, and ideas that influence the world.

The lower half portrays Earth teeming with life. Ever-changing vegetation – vivid, lush plants and flowers – bursts with dynamic energy emanating from the center. At this origin point lies a Flower of Life design, symbolizing the foundation of all physical creation. This energetic field extends across the earth, connecting every living element with vibrancy and interdependence.

Humans appear as evolved deities scattered across the landscape. These figures wear symbolic crowns radiating wisdom and authority. The crown embodies a deep understanding of the world, inner strength, and the dual responsibility to lead wisely and compassionately. They stand tall, exuding confidence and purpose.

The focal point features a powerful man supporting a goddess-like woman, inspired by Isis. She is depicted with open arms and majestic wings, symbolizing strength and freedom. In one hand, she holds a large key, representing the power to transform reality and unlock dimensions of knowledge and spirituality. In her other hand, she holds the ankh, a timeless symbol of life and the soul’s immortality. Her nude form embodies vulnerability, freedom, and authenticity, while her wings reflect her capacity to soar above limitations.

Surrounding her, an open flower cradles other women, all portrayed as goddesses. These goddesses sit gracefully, their presence embodying beauty, fearlessness, and a commitment to service. The open flowers they rest upon symbolize virtues such as joy, purity, and the nurturing energy essential for evolution.

In contrast, the upper portion of the painting displays crystallized bubbles, representing rigid, outdated religious constructs and separation from earthly reality. Inside these bubbles, trapped figures are shown regressing, symbolized by their transformation back into fish – a poignant reminder of stagnation and the dangers of disconnection from growth.
