“Enso, also known as the Zen Circle or Circle of Enlightenment, is considered the pinnacle of Zen Buddhism. Empty yet full, infinite and complete, the caligrapher’s hand draws it in one breath, with no corrections permitted afterwards. It is the ultimate exercise of clearing one’s mind and achieving a higher consciousness state where the circle brushes itself, with very little effort and control by the artist. The true creative spirit takes over and the work creates itself beyond anyone’s expectations.” Glassman, Infinite Circle - Teachings in Zen.

Aesthetically, the work translates and expands on the duality of Enso with visual contrast of strong lines vs drops, curve lines vs. straight, solid and fragmented.

Part of series "Enso -Movement Desires' 2022 exploring movement as a geteway to creativity, abstraction and genius.. The series is also a study for a large abstract painting series called " A Walk In Japan' 2022.
