Dawn keepers
Painting by Lana Korolievskaia
100 x 60 cm • Canvas, Oil
One of a kind
What do we see? Or maybe it seemed? Yes, these are stone people sitting on the mountain! Maybe this is a trick of light or a well-chosen angle? Really, what's the difference? We see in front of us exactly what we want. Reality is born in the mind of the observer! It is a projection of our expectations and intentions. Why do people of art often have insights? Because they see the signs and are attentive to minor anomalies that they are ready to detect. They do not look across, but see the essence beyond the outer screen. Why is what we see happening in the world? Because it is a projection of a social intention that does not have consciousness, that does not understand how dangerous it is to imagine its worst fears! Observation is an active process, and not a simple study and analysis of something that already exists, created without your participation. Few are able to actively observe, creating an ideal reality. Compared to the vast majority, their activities are a drop in the bucket. But this does not mean that you need to stop doing it. So be careful! Look at everything from above, like these stone people guarding the dawn. The sun also looks at us, illuminating everything with its light. The bright rays of the sun can overcome even the densest gray clouds. The darkness recedes, recognizing the superiority of the sun. And a new day comes. This painting is about active observation and mindfulness. It will remind its owner of simple truths that are forgotten in the bustle of everyday life. You'll definitely have a lot to talk about with your guests while watching Dawn Keepers over a cup of tea and discussing all these things.
