"The Origin" is part of “The Space Between Us” series, inspired by the emotional landscape of the cosmos — its vastness, its silence, its quiet pull. I’ve always been drawn to the feeling of space — to its sense of openness, contradiction, and calm. The universe holds a strange duality: a place of deep solitude, yet also one of immense connection and energy. It’s where thoughts expand, and emotions stretch into something timeless. Where gravity becomes emotion, and space becomes reflection. Each piece invites the viewer to drift through that tension — between emptiness and presence, stillness and movement — and to feel, for a moment, held by something larger than themselves.
"The Origin" imagines a quiet figure, seated within the swirl of stars, suspended at the center of a silent, rotating cosmos. It is a meditative space. A visual breath. A moment to return to the beginning. This piece reflects on the idea that the universe may not exist outside of us, but through us — that our perception becomes the rhythm of creation. The figure becomes a subtle metaphor for presence: not in control, but attuned to harmony. With textured layers and painterly softness, the work avoids cold futurism. Instead, it brings a quiet warmth — a poetic stillness — reminding us that even in the most expansive unknown, the origin might simply be… ourselves.
