Ocean of silence
“Ocean of Silence” is a work from the “In-Between” series, transporting the viewer into a world of infinity, harmony, and contemplation. An intense ultramarine blue dominates the canvas, evoking a sense of vastness and tranquility while simultaneously emphasizing the depth and mystery of the ocean. This color not only soothes but also inspires humility in the face of nature's power and its unfathomable expanse. In contrast to the background, geometric forms in various shades subtly mark their presence, creating a sense of order within infinity.
The composition of the painting invites the viewer to discover the “in-between”—a space where silence and peace intertwine with dynamism and subtle movement. The geometric shapes seem to drift in the ocean, like islands or fragments of human thoughts floating on the surface of the mind. This symbolism encourages reflection on the balance between emptiness and presence, between what is noticeable and what remains hidden.
“Ocean of Silence” opens a space for meditation on one's place in the world. The blue hue serves as a reminder that although the world may seem infinite and distant, we are always in dialogue with our surroundings. The artist poses a question: how do we find ourselves in this “in-between” space? It is also a reminder of the humility required in the face of nature's vastness and the importance of silence in our daily lives—silence that allows us to perceive what truly matters. “Ocean of Silence” becomes a metaphor for the inner peace we all seek in a world full of movement and chaos.
