Full Moon is a sculptural painting that began as a square canvas layered with color fields, cryptic formulas, and rose petals—ephemeral, fragrant, and alive. This first phase was a kind of devotional arrangement, merging the sensual and the symbolic. But rather than preserving the beauty, the process turned inward: the whole piece was wrapped tightly, tied with string, and sealed like a votive bundle—becoming something hidden, protected, and transformed.
The soft package was then encased in clay infused with crushed herbs, spices, and plants. Coins and computer circuits were embedded into the surface—marking a quiet intersection between worlds. Incorporating coins (value), circuits (thought), herbs (medicine), and clay (earth) adds layers of meaning: technology meets ritual, commerce meets nature. The result is a layered talisman where the sacred and the synthetic touch. Asemic inscriptions were carved into the dried clay—an invented script that holds no fixed language, only resonance and intention.
Like the full moon, this work represents a sealed fullness—a culmination. What was once open and blooming is now closed, encoded, and quiet. It is not meant to be fully understood, only encountered. A painting turned into a bundle, turned into a relic, turned into a whisper.
