This is an original small multi-media painting. It depicts a hand reaching towards a circular space filled with these space like cloud formations.
Why did you create it?
I started this multimedia paintings/ drawing last year in 2024. At the time I was thinking about creating another space to enter. I thought what if I combined a hand reaching to this space? I started drawing it out. It took me on a journey as I was looking at the progress and thinking, what is manifesting here?
This was not the only artwork as there is another in the series. I stoped working on them in 2024 as I did not know what direction to take it, the process just stalled!
In 2025 I decided to get back to working on these artworks. Something clicked and drew me back into it. Maybe sometimes it’s good to leave the art for a wile and come back to work on it. I started adding more colour. The space like clouds become more vivid and intense. The hand seemed alien yet human, like it is morphing between this reality and another. I found it becoming more meaningful.
During this process I had a profound moment, I got quite emotional. It got me thinking about life and our mortality. We are only alive on this planet for a short time in the cosmos of things. After its completion and stepping back to look at it, it made me realise that there is an unknown to this life we find ourselves in. Who I am I? Where are we going? What is this life? Perhaps looking at this artwork can lead us to embrace the unknown and what life has for us.
What materials and techniques were used?
Within a lot of my paintings I enjoy using and combing different multi-media materials. With this artwork I continued with this exploration by using acrylic paints for the hand and coloured water colour pencils for the backdrop. Not only that I also applied gloss onto the circle to create this watery reflection. There is a combination of contrasting materials. The water colour paper also adds to the texture giving the surface an almost scroll like apperiance. Maybe because I spent quite a bit of time working on this there is also a history to the artwork.
