Artwork Description:
Inspired by Bahaullahs The Seven Valleys in which the souls journey back to its Creator is expressed in terms of stages.
The first stage is Search.
The compositions of each piece in this series are based on painted photographs I took of a section of a previous work, which I then photocopied and turned upside down (or side-ways) and placed within each painting to add a complimentary element representing the soul. Five small objects in each piece, while subjectively taken directly from the writings of their respective chapter, also numerically represent the five senses.
