This sculpture symbolizes deep and profound philosophical understandings, esoteric insights and recognitions of spiritual truths for me personally and there is only one word to embody all these meanings: Shibumi*. Shibumi the concept, arose perhaps in the contemplative mind of an ancient Zen Master upon observing the inherent drive in all things to experience harmony on both the inner realm and the outer form and to achieve integration of the two into Oneness, by way of non-attachment.
Think of Shibumi as the Path to Effortless Perfection.
In Zen, this state of elegant simplicity is discovered, rather than achieved.
It connotes ineffable qualities of great refinement underlying commonplace appearances. It is understanding rather than knowledge, it is eloquent silence, articulate brevity, it is modesty without prudence, authority without domination, it is spiritual tranquility that is not passive, Beingness without the angst of becoming, and it is understated beauty.  It can describe a demeanor, a simple gesture, a personality, a flower arrangement, a garden, a philosophical understanding and of course an artistic creation. In fact Shibumi is an art in itself, the Art of Simplicity, Grace and Elegance.
Try to view this work in all of its complex simplicity and purity with an awareness of these concepts, and observe how your perception will change and deepen.
