Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
“I CLOSE MY EYES TO SEE”
Sometimes, to truly feel. You have to stop looking with your eyes.
Sometimes you just need to shut everything off, lift your head to the sky and say:
“Show me not with my eyes. Show me with my heart.”
You won’t always find answers in the image before you.
Sometimes they come as vibration. As silence.
As a soft tingling on your skin. As something you can’t explain —
but can’t unfeel. It’s a moment of connection.
To yourself. To something higher. To something deeper.

“I DISCONNECTED TO RECONNECT”
You closed your eyes and let go of control.
Let them think. Let them choose. Let them guide.
This painting captures that subtle moment
of surrendering to technology.
A trust that feels light, but might become a trap. The world says:
“We’re faster. Smarter. More precise.”
But smarter than who? And at what cost?

“I MELT TO REMEMBER WHO I AM”
What if you’re not falling apart
but shedding, layer by layer, everything you never truly were?
What if this isn’t chaos but the moment your energy outgrows its old container?
Closed eyes don’t mean silence here.
They mean an internal explosion.
A dissolving of the image. A new version of you being born.
No shape. No borrowed words. Just pure power.

“I AM LISTENING TO MYSELF”
Sometimes, in order to hear yourself, you have to stop hearing everyone else.
You’re not isolating — you’re realigning. You’re turning down the external noise so that, in the quiet within, the most important voice can finally be heard — your own.
Not every voice deserves space.
Not every sound is truth. In the silence, what matters most finally speaks —
clearly, powerfully, unmistakably.

This collection
A visual journey through silence, surrender, and self-remembrance.Each piece in this series explores the invisible codes we live by - beliefs, systems, expectations - and the quiet rebellion it takes to break free from them. From closed eyes to muted ears, melting faces to exposed energy - this is not about disconnection, but realignment.A return to the voice within.
A choice to unplug from noise, and reprogram reality from the inside out.This is a collection about listening differently, seeing beyond the surface, and remembering who we were before the world told us who to be.
