An attitude of curiosity helps us to heal.
In the midst of a chaotic season of life, I made this artwork.
I layered more and more colourful lines on top of each other.
Each line represents another task on my to-do list, or a thought looping around my mind.
I found myself mesmerised by the textures and colours.
Much to my own surprise, I wrote:
“It’s surprisingly colourful when you look closer.”
And in an instant, I could feel the anxiety in my body settle down.
What shifted? I realised that my life was very full. But it was full of colour, and there was something delightful about that!
The longer I sat with it, the more I noticed my stress was coming from doing so many things I loved at the same time.
Approaching the artwork with curiosity gave me a new perspective.
In fact, there was nothing wrong as such. I just had to slow down enough to see it.
