Being inspired by spirituality, science, literature, psychology, philosophy, music and other aspects of eastern and western culture, examining life and its essence on both sides of the spectrum through series or works, expressing thoughts and feelings on human experience of love, separation, unity, endurance, longing and finally the triumph of human unified soul, embracing and achieving authentic self. The power of presence, unity, peace and loving consciousness.

Glorious Presence (Abstracts)

"I experience spontaneity and state of presence within and transfrom it on the canvas, inspired by music that has been inspired by the poetry of Rumi and Hafez. The flow quality of form and color are indicatative of the dance of freedom, spontaneity, joy and the celebration of life."

Quantum Women

"I search and examinethe notion of peace and beauty in pure state of presence."

Women East Women West, Veil and Shadows

Conversation with Silence

"I communicate peace and tranquility through simple forms and variations of white pigments, within the creative space associated with possibility in silence."

"Silent Vision": Projects for Peace and Possibilities for Communities and Oneself

In contrast with visual stories told in my first book: A Woman's Eye - Women East Women West for Global Peace, Conversations with Silence stems from a field of non-conceptual state of mind. A presence filled with vibrating silence.
