Layers of the Coffee Bean

The Layers of the Coffee Bean series explores the coffee bean not only as a symbol of transformation and connection but also as a carrier of hidden meanings. Subtle motifs are woven into the texture of the beans, evoking a sense of mystery and introspection. These elements invite the viewer to look beyond the surface and uncover deeper layers of meaning.

However, my exploration of coffee in art is not limited to depicting coffee beans. Some works express its essence through other symbols—such as a croissant or a cigarette—representing emotions, rituals, and memories. These connections offer new perspectives, revealing how everyday objects can hold profound significance.

Each piece in my work is part of a larger journey, where layers of visual and symbolic meaning intertwine, encouraging personal interpretation.

Harmony Within the Bean - C35 “Harmony Within the Bean - C35”

This artwork explores the connection between simplicity and depth. At first glance, it depicts a coffee bean, a symbol of routine and comfort. Upon closer observation, a serene woman emerges within the bean, embodying tranquility, reflection, and inner strength.

The coffee bean, often overlooked as mundane, holds layers of complexity and transformation. In this piece, I wanted to explore the idea that within the ordinary lies extraordinary beauty and meaning. The woman inside the bean symbolizes the inner world of calm and resilience that each of us carries.

The vibrant color-blocked background contrasts life’s external energy with the peace found within. This work invites viewers to pause, look closer, and find harmony amidst the chaos of daily life.

By choosing the coffee bean—a recurring motif in my work—I celebrate the intersection of the familiar and the profound, encouraging viewers to see beyond the surface and embrace the transformative beauty of the everyday.

Ethereal Bloom - F18 “Ethereal Bloom - F18”

This painting captures the delicate elegance of a lily in full bloom, its soft pink petals radiating against the vibrant green backdrop. The composition draws the viewer into a moment of serenity, celebrating the flower's natural grace and purity.

For me, the lily embodies renewal and quiet strength—a reminder of the beauty found in simplicity and the fleeting yet profound nature of life’s moments. Each petal, painted with care, reflects not just the flower's physical form but its symbolic resonance as a messenger of hope and tranquility.
