LIQUID
ARTIST STATEMENT LIQUID “The soul of man resembleth water” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe I have always been drawn to water. Like Keats, my name is writ in water. For me oceans, lakes, seas and rivers are inner harbours for reflection. Water is always on the move. Where it flows to and from where it comes is often not perceivable. As it flows, light dances on its surface making it impossible to look away. And as the light changes, the water is clothed in fresh and warming hues that soothe and energize the soul. I love the liquid state of action without action that with its flowing lines of light surfing across the surface have let me float in relaxing inner journeys, gently examining my own paths, inspiring me to feather-light further thought letting me become part of the fluid movement. When the light changes and the colours flow out and other colours flow in to the picture, the whole spectacle becomes liquid. For me life’s journey is liquid – our souls following a flowing path. To go with the flow is not to join the crowd – it is to find ourselves in unconditional surrender to the soft and peaceful buoyant weightlessness of liquid hues. Liquid is my splash of elegant and peaceful reflection. MORE INFO: https://www.antoniapiagordon.com/usr/library/documents/main/liquid.pdf
