BE AND IT IS-II Print

Dancing to the rhythm of the universe: the sufi dervish embodies the power of 'kun faya kun'." This painting of a whirling sufi dervish evokes a powerful spiritual message of "kun faya kun," or "be and it is." The dervish, captured in a state of ecstatic devotion, symbolizes the transformative power of surrendering oneself to the divine. The use of purple in the painting adds to the spiritual symbolism, as the color is often associated with royalty, wisdom, and spirituality. The dervish's dress is made from a cloth piece, adding depth and texture to the artwork. This use of mixed media adds to the sense of movement and fluidity, as the fabric seems to swirl and flow with the dervish's movements. As viewers gaze upon this painting, they are invited to immerse themselves in the dervish's spiritual journey. The whirling motion and vivid colors convey a sense of transcendence and liberation, reminding us of the infinite possibilities that arise when we surrender ourselves to the divine. Through this artwork, I hope to inspire viewers to embrace the power of spiritual devotion and to surrender themselves to the divine will. The sufi dervish serves as a reminder of the transformative power of faith and the beauty that arises when we let go and allow ourselves to be carried by the divine flow. Instagrams: Kayss artwork
