About the Item

At first glance, it is an ocean. Vast, deep, and silent. But at its bottom lies Adam. A young Adam, immersed in a stillness that feels like the end of everything. This is a biblical analogy of sin: the moment when one falls so deeply that it seems there is no way back. The ocean floor becomes an image of an inner fall, a state in which a person is left alone with their choice. Yet this bottom is not a sentence. It is a space for exploration. To rise, one must first dive deeper – into one’s own heart, soul, and body. To understand the root of the path that leads to change, whether negative or positive. To see how inner processes shape the future course of life – whether one remains at the bottom or begins to rethink what the bottom truly is. Darkness here does not mean emptiness. It has form, color, and temperature. It interacts with the body, alters sensation, sharpens awareness. The light that penetrates through the thickness of water does not blind; it touches gently, revealing new layers of perception. This is a dialogue between body and light, the consequences of which can be both destructive and healing. If one looks around, it becomes clear that the inner world can be as beautiful and complex as the underwater world of the ocean. Darkness is not always cold or colorless. In truth, it is rich with vivid, deep hues that awaken new sensations – in the body and in the mind. On the surface, where there is sun, the world exists differently – in warmth, in another form of love, in openness. Yet darkness and light, land and ocean do not oppose one another. They interact, bringing their own colors into every world. And it is within this interaction that understanding is born: the bottom is not an end, but a form of beginning. Please note that the painting was painted on canvas with acrylic paints, but the painting is not stretched on a stretcher. Therefore, when buying a painting, it will be well packed in a tube. The full size of the canvas is 100x165 cm. The painting will be packed in a tube and shipped to you. Once you receive it, you can stretch/install it on a stretcher at your local frame shop.
