2021 - Bloom of Lotus, from Twilight to Dawn

“Look! I have given you every seed-bearing plant that grows throughout the earth, along with every tree that grows seed-bearing fruit. They will produce your food. I have given all green plants as food for every wild animal of the earth, every bird that flies, and to every living thing that crawls on the earth.” Now God saw all that he had made, and indeed, it was very good! The twilight and the dawn were the sixth days. (Genesis 1:1-31)

God created the world in six days, it took one day for people to turn it upside down. Due to the pandemic situation all around the world, one starts to consider the inevitability of the changes. Suddenly everyone is responsible not only for their actions but not the less for another person also. Humanity goes through difficult times, keeping ourselves strong mentally and physically, we are questioning the new order of the world. We must deal with different emotions and find the new spiritual strength to go on living in this new world. The Confusion, sadness, happiness, or excitement of new order gives birth to new strengths and changes. Going through these changes’ humanity is looking for spiritual food, for something to rebirth, to recreate, and everyone seeks to find their own lotus flower. On the way to the new better us, the arts (fine arts, music, literature) will make a huge healing impact. The creative and unanticipated approach to the situation, changes, and time will become the first aids through this painful journey. My project was inspired by the six days of creation, birth and rebirth of nature changes from twilight/death to dawn/life, it tells the story of the humanity, which arises from purified and cleansed waters like lotus flowers to bring new seeds to the world.
