"The Untranslated Self" is an abstract exploration of the parts of us that live beyond language—those deep, intuitive layers of being that can’t be put into words, only felt. Through bold shapes, layered geometry, and vibrant color fields, the painting becomes a kind of visual frequency, inviting the viewer into a quiet space of recognition and reflection.Circular forms pulse with energy, while soft glazes and sharp patterns overlap like thoughts, memories, or emotions trying to surface. The composition walks the line between chaos and calm, with moments of movement and stillness held in delicate balance.There’s no single meaning to decode—this piece is about sensing what resonates with you. It’s a meditative work, a mirror for inner landscapes, and a gentle reminder that some truths don’t need translation—they simply need presence.Created with acrylic, gesso, ink, markers and glazing on a 40cm x 40cm birchwood panel. Unframed.
