Surrender Painting

An eye opening experience for the artist. The painting is based on the last scene in the video shot in the Klong Toey slums. The location is a surprisingly huge, open space with a beautiful blue house in the background… a far cry from the filth and degradation of the rest of slum. The experience confused the artist: was she bringing warmth to a cold spot or was it completely the opposite, “A lot of times we think we are doing great things for people but actually we are just intruding.’ Was she the selfish intruder just making use of someone else’s reality? https://youtu.be/vNIj8I8lOPc REFLECTIVE ECHOES Using repetitive movement as a starting point for this series of oils on canvas, Sejal reflects on the concept of disappearing into meditative space while rooted in reality. In these visceral works the artist explores three concepts: reflection through repetition; freedom through repetition; and becoming one with the space… hence Reflective Echoes. The repetition  (of the spinning dance move) gives her the knowledge, the comfort and the confidence to repeat over and over again the same movement, much like all in nature. That deep meditative space is where her artworks of dancers caught in ‘a moment in time’ spring from; movements that are sometimes blurry and at others sharp… but all echoing the dance of creation. Her focus essentially is on the repetition of a movement, on surrendering to it, letting your body take over, and move without any conscious instruction. And the freedom that comes with this endless repetition. This original artwork will be packed with protective paper and rolled at the time of delivery to ensure its high quality. For best results have the canvas professionally framed.
