《Serene Deer》描繪一頭安詳的鹿面對著神話中的雪獅,眼神堅定溫柔。雪獅 是力量和逆境的象徵,它用兇猛的目光回望鹿,彷彿在挑戰它的存在。
兇猛的雪獅象徵人生的風暴,而鹿代表平靜專注的心靈。兩方的相遇象徵情感
與心靈之間錯綜複雜的關係。它探討了一個概念:心靈創造情緒,而我們有能
力選擇如何回應它們。
隱藏的雪獅部分包圍著鹿,代表了情感和逆境的本質。它們看似圍繞著我們,
但只要有堅定、冷靜的頭腦,我們就可以找到內在的力量來應對生活的挑戰。
我想邀請大家思考內心的深刻智慧,並認識到就像鹿選擇平靜而非恐懼一樣,
我們在面對生活逆境時擁有控制自己反應的力量。
This painting depicts a serene deer, its gaze steady and unflinching, facing a mythical snow lion with its maw agape, exuding an aura of fierceness. The snow lion, a symbol of strength and adversity, gazes back at the deer with intensity, as if to challenge its very existence. Yet, the deer remains calm and composed. The presence of a second snow lion, only partially visible, creates the impression that it is encircling the deer, making the moment even more poignant.
This encounter symbolizes the intricate relationship between emotions and the mind. It explores the concept that emotions are, ultimately, a creation of the mind, and it is within our power to choose how we respond to them.
The serene deer, representing a tranquil and focused mind, remains unperturbed in the face of adversity, personified by the fierce snow lion. The open-mouthed lion symbolizes the storms of life, while the deer's calmness signifies our ability to choose how we face adversity.
The hidden snow lion partially encircling the deer represents the pervasive nature of emotions and adversities. They may seem to surround us, but with a resolute and composed mind, we can find the inner strength to navigate life's challenges.
This piece invites us to consider the profound wisdom within ourselves, recognising that we hold power over our responses in the face of life's adversities. Just as the deer chooses serenity over fear, we have the agency to choose our response to life's adversities.
