Nucleus Painting

There is a scientific understanding that all life on earth relies on a fixed amount of energy. That energy cannot be created, only converted from one form into another, which can be observed from the simple consumption of food to the process of heating a home. This belief also has spiritual implications for the energy of a person’s life-force, their essence, and this painting is an exploration of that internal, personal energy. Many believe that when a person’s life ends, their energy is dispersed into the atmosphere to help create something new, and with that, they become eternal.
