Divine Meaning

A father and daughter walking the water's edge. He is slightly ahead with a sure step. She goes shyly, still unsteady, holding his hand with her whole hand.

“Divine Meaning”, 40 × 30 cm, mixed technique on canvas. Mini-art range.

Sky and water have run into one another, and against that smoothness the two of them are the only event.

He does not look back. He leads by the feel of her palm in his, and that is enough.

The shore is behind them. The viewer stands at the border and watches them go, and they walk off into the light.

These are her first steps. Sand is the least of it.

The archetype is plain: a father and a child, a beginning and a road, trust with no conditions.

The divine part of the title has nothing to do with a temple. It is a hand, light on water, the silence between words.

This one does not speak loudly. It barely speaks at all.

In a bedroom it hangs well low down, near where you sit.
