The Runes of the Tide (From the Göbeklitepe & Beyond Series)
TR
A captivating multidisciplinary expansion of the Göbeklitepe & Beyond Series, this minimalist artwork bridges the ancient script traditions of the North with the serene aesthetics of the East, executed entirely in delicate watercolor without the use of ink. The composition features an original haiku poem written by the artist, rendered in enigmatic runic characters through translucent washes of paint. This sharp, geometric script is accompanied by a single, subtle wave element inspired by classical Japanese art. Stripped of all narrative clutter, the stark simplicity of the piece explores the harmonious contrast between the rigid edges of the runes and the fluid, transparent nature of the watercolor medium. It stands as a poetic testament to how human expression drifts across cultures, carried gently by water and light.
