Inward is a vibrant invocation of the inner terrain—a synesthetic plunge into the layered complexity of the self. Composed of undulating shapes and luminous hues, the work reads like a topography of consciousness in motion: a spiraling journey through joy, fragmentation, memory, and integration.

The swirling currents of red, orange, violet, and green do not clash—they dance. They entwine like neural pathways or ancient energies in flux, converging toward a singular eye at the heart of the composition—an eye that sees not with sight, but with insight.

This is the eye of inward knowing, the gaze that turns within and, in doing so, touches the infinite. It is at once the witness of the self and the mirror of the Source, revealing that to truly look inside is also to look into the cosmos. The divine, it suggests, is not somewhere else—it awakens through us when we dare to see.. There is no fixed form, only emergence. No destination, only unfolding.

In the spirit of abstract expressionism fused with a psychedelic intuition, Inward reflects the process of self-discovery not as a straight line, but as an ecstatic turbulence. It is a mirror of the unconscious, the way colors might dream if freed from edges.

The painting suggests that introspection is not passive—it is volcanic. To turn inward is to traverse an infinity as vast as any cosmos. And here, in pigment and movement, that infinity pulses vividly.

Currently displayed in Old Center of Bucharest at "Club Vernisage" Garllery, evaluated at 400 euro.
