This first piece of my ongoing series which I titled "The guardians" came from a stream of consciousness rather than from a predetermined concept. I was essentially allowing recent thoughts, contradictions, beliefs, superstition, existential questions, anxiety, fear of death, and thoughts about higher or otherworldly beings to enter the drawing.
its something I call “the garden of my subconscious” a place where different things from my inner world could exist together without necessarily having to resolve into one explanation. it shows how I externalize my perception of the unknown and my attempt to let that unarticulated part of consciousness exist visually, without forcing it to explain itself.
