About the theme of "the headless way"

The concept of "going the headless way" emerges through the layered use
of green, a color symbolizing growth, renewal, and balance.

Acrylic paint is the foundation, applied in fluid, organic patterns to evoke a sense of openness and surrender.

Tapes and yarn are integrated to create intricate pathways, weaving connections that dissolve boundaries between the self and the surrounding world.

These materials mirror the transcendence of ego, as the overlapping textures represent unity and interdependence within a more extensive, unfiltered reality.

The shades of green—from soft, muted tones to vibrant, saturated hues
— reflect the journey of moving beyond personal identity into pure awareness.

Softer greens embody a calming stillness, inviting contemplation,
while brighter accents suggest bursts of vitality and enlightenment.

The tactile contrast between smooth paint and textured yarn disrupts visual expectations, urging viewers to engage directly with the work without preconceived notions.

This is similar to the Zen practice of experiencing life
without conceptual filters.
