The use of basic geometric forms like triangles, rectangles, and pyramids speaks to foundational structures and archetypes that underlie our perception of reality. These primal shapes connect to universal symbols and patterns found across cultures, tapping into shared human experiences and the collective unconscious.
The highly contrasting black background serves to focus attention intensely on the bright, dynamic elements in the foreground. Symbolically, the shapes represent a sail boat gliding by with a spotlight scanning the architectural forms, searching for the right place to dock.
The angular shapes create a sense of movement, reflecting the ever-evolving flux of human consciousness and experience, while the geometric planes appear grounded and rooted, like pillars supporting an unseen architecture of being. This steady part of the psyche is what allows us to be comfortable (if even momentarily) with uncertainty.

This composition represents an abstract ship with sails, the angular shapes symbolizing movement and the idea of embarkation - the act of setting out on a journey or new venture. The black background hints at the unknown expanses awaiting beyond our current understanding or comfort zones.
The contrasting palette of warm and cool hues creates an emotional dynamic, mirroring the ebb and flow of excitement and trepidation we experience when venturing into unfamiliar spaces that challenge our beliefs and personal growth. A translucent triangle in coral brings in an ethereal element which essentially "steers the ship."
The green striped plane and the earth toned base of the “ship” introduces an earthy, natural essence amidst the more rigid shapes, reminding us of our grounded roots and organic origins that we carry forward even as we embark on transcendent mental, emotional or spiritual journeys. The curved lines convey flow and movement, recall our humanity, and soften the forward drive.

This minimal abstract almost feels like a strange landscape. It evokes a calling to journey through chasms. Or to recall a moment of stillness and clarity.
