About the theme of "Triskele"
When I painted these two triangle-based canvases, I was thinking about
the Triskeles, an ancient symbol of three interlocked spirals that speaks
to perpetual motion, cycles, and interconnected energies.
Instead of literal spirals, I used the triangle as a conceptual anchor:
a nod to the triadic forces of body, mind, and environment; past, present,
and future, or even chaos, order, and adaptation.
But rather than centering the triangle harmoniously, I forced it off-balance, disrupted it with tangled yarn, fragmented tape, and color collisions.
This visual dissonance reflects the inner turbulence of transformation
and the imperfect loops we repeat.


The square canvas acts as a rigid container, yet the triangle tries to break free, rotate, or levitate, as if enacting its spiral logic within a confined space.
The act of layering, both controlled and erratic- echoed my emotional state:
a blend of curiosity, tension, and resistance.
These are not polished symbols of transcendence; they’re maps of struggle, inertia, and movement in the face of stasis.
The Triskele lingers beneath, reinterpreted as a psychogeographic imprint, suggesting that even fractured forms can hold dynamic energy when
seen from multiple angles.
