2025 Earth Home
Paintings
Earth Home is an exhibition that explores themes of belonging and connection. Home, as a concept, signifies a relationship with nature. The landscape becomes an extension of the body, where the self intertwines with a living, pulsing network. The inevitability of material cycles is present everywhere: nothing that exists ever truly disappears—only transformation is possible.
I recognize this land. I search for signs and directions within its landscape, where eternity and the present moment rest side by side. From mothers to children, the same paths have guided this passage before. Now they are inscribed upon the maps of my body. Memories of the past and glimmers of the future grow around me like into networks. The truth reveals itself gradually: the only order lies within this cyclical vortex.
Each time I return, my roots burrow deeper into this alliance. And so, I make a pact with the landscape. I understand that I never again need to return home, for home travels with me always.
