Artwork Description:

Paintings inspired by travels to India and the Tibetan plateau on several occasions between 1987 and 1995, and by the following phrase I stumbled upon while I was working on them: �Continue to observe and you will find that there is a place in you where you are quiet, calm, and nothing can disturb you � only it is difficult to find the way there. But if you do it several times you will be able to remember some of the steps, and by the same steps you may come there again. Only you cannot do it after one experience, for you will not remember the way. This quiet place is not a metaphor � it is a very real thing. .../ ... If you find yourself in it again, try to remember how you got there, for sometimes it happens that one finds this place and loses the way there; then again one finds it and again loses the way. It is very difficult to remember the way to this place.� P. D. Ouspensky in The Fourth Way. taken from the exhibition 'circumambulatio' this was the central piece of the red tryptich.
