The Personal And Universal Are One Painting

I am a Singaporean national of Indian origin. I have no formal education in art or philosophy. I hold an MBA degree with a finance major but gave up a decade long career in banking about 15 years ago. Since a very early age, I was very curious to find the ultimate meaning of life and this curiosity led to a life long investigation of the mind and its manifestations. I began painting about 15 years ago and starting writing poetry about two years ago. I write an original poem for each painting that I make and both are exhibited together. Overall, my art and poetry make a strong suggestion to the viewer to investigate their present experience to realize what reality really is. And to see that the world as it is currently understood, is merely a relative imaginary construct comprising mainly of thought. And that even within that thought construct, there is no separation between the individual and the world he inhabits. And to pave the way for the 'Everything' and the 'Nothing' to shine through the mind. This is the reason my website is called – www.emptinessisfull.com. With immense love and gratitude, I present to you some of my art works and writings
