This painting is a representation for the perfect balance between darkness and light, suffering and joy. Life contains within it both horror and beauty in an infinite abundance. However, you will see only what you choose to focus on. Everything in life is necessary for balance to exist. Without a reference point, without a scale, without the ability to move back and forth between polar opposites, experience would not be possible. You must have the good and you must have the bad. If there were no dark room, how could you ever turn on a light? This piece symbolizes the convergence of opposing polarities, which together create the unity, the eternal present moment. Every human being that goes through life will inevitably go through and witness all varying degrees of experience, from the deepest turmoil and suffering to the the greatest peaks of joy and bliss, from the blindest ignorance and lack of knowledge to the most grand understanding and wisdom unspeakable. It is possible for one to come to terms with this all encompassing process and evolution of consciousness to eventually exist in one’s own skin, accepting and peaceful with all that life has to offer.
