Art Is The Reflection Of The Soul In Motion
The merit of art is to frame the profile of experiences in the whole of humanity, taking into account the "crisis" that appeared in a sudden moment of revelation.
Where do the steps of destiny lead us, when we run along the paths of life? Because, at the last running competition, my sister Oana Fântânaru went down the hill behind another runner, keeping behind her for a good part of the way. Something felt off about the path they were taking side by side, like twin shadows in the ephemeral game of competition, triggering a kind of autonomic nervous activity in her where intensity, balance, and mobility lost coordination. He suddenly asked himself, “Is this the right way? Have we not lost ourselves in the labyrinth of our own ambitions?"
Suddenly, a particularly beautiful butterfly crossed Oana's path, as if telling her not to continue in the direction followed by the other runner, to give up the competition, or to find a new path. Was this butterfly a messenger of the "Azenthopia Illiersebre", a manifestation of divine intuition before which reason pales, a kind of spiritual guide? Guided by this fleeting epiphany, she turned back and continued running on what turned out to be the best route. All the while, the other runner, otherwise very well trained, crossed the finish line last because the road she ran on was wrong.
This questionable episode, suspended between what you fail to become and what you could be, reminded me that the merit of art is to frame the profile of experiences in the whole of life, taking into account the "crisis" that appears in a sudden moment of revelation which takes shape clearly and profoundly. The inner crisis highlights who you are and who you can become. And art, like the butterfly that appeared to Oana, tends to widen the capacity for perception, to intensify emotionality through an unleashing of sensations that transcend the barriers of the possible hard to accept.
How can a revelatory experience artistically lead to a better understanding of one's own self and the otherness one encounters in trying moments?
When you run, you push your limits and enter that zone of pure art where you feel anything is possible. Especially in the state of "artheosia" - the fusion between art and epiphany - creation becomes the space of becoming of one's own rhythmic movement, a kind of exercise of the spirit that culminates in liberation and inner fulfillment. Oana did not act in a pre-determined space, but on the contrary, she herself determined her space, within a universe that is built together with life itself and that satisfies you with a rare clarity of artistic expression and emotion, requested by itself her inner search.
Isn't that right? In a decisive moment, Oana opened the dimension of the rational manifestations of life itself, by virtue of an internal law, without artifices and illusions, which can be formulated as follows: "Art is the reflection of the soul in motion." Or, to put it another way: art is the deep echo of the human spirit that transcends the expected reality.
In addition, the tendency to transform reality due to the powerful intensity of the moment has become the essential factor of creative action.
Yes, art expresses the living and moving force of existence, beyond the limits of ordinary perception, according to the deep impulses of the soul. Obviously, Oana's struggle with her own nature, when the circumstances demanded it, all the more difficult, unbearable and complicated, seems to have been the manifestation of an inner essence of vital meaning: as long as artistic expressions will be means of releasing the energy of the spirit under the pressure of temporary constraints, it will find its definitive stability. The attachment to one's own work assumes a position of struggle and active intervention in the reality of a situation, transforming it into a reflection of one's own consciousness.
Does the art you create capture the depth of your moments of revelation, when you are caught between your potential for self-transcendence and the current reality you are not ready to accept?
Artistic expressions are uniquely personal statements that can reveal important meanings of individual experience, encompassing conscious and unconscious elements, making each moment a reflection of inner state. As far as Oana is concerned, a single word cries out with power in her soul, an ejercicio del espíritu, a turn towards symbolism that leads to enlightenment: "Rebirth", that inner revival that propels her towards new horizons.
Here we are talking about the space where the soul disputes the control of the rather exhausted body, that space of fragile, rhythmic, asymmetrical balance between inner strength and physical limits. In this sense, the new artistic spirit has as its motto the overcoming of inertia and the subtle association based on comparison of states of consciousness. Space thus becomes the dimension of self-conscious life in its evolution, expressing the living and moving force of human creation.
Through its experiences, art redefines the relationship of perception between space and form, along the lines of a creative transcendence. It manifests itself as a superior expression of the spirit, where any revival of art must be based, above all, on a new conception of the value of existence. From this point of view, Oana has become the living example that art embodies, just as an artist transposes his inner vision into his creations.
Does the ideal viewing position of the route you have to travel influence the visual perception of the work you bring to life, taking into account the interpretation of your own artistic evolution in relation to the unexpected circumstances of life?
Art is the reflection of the soul in motion when it manages to capture the essence of your deepest emotions and thoughts. In this oscillation between despair and exaltation, art becomes the manifestation of an inner essence of vital meaning: as long as your expressions will be means of releasing the energy of the spirit under the pressure of wandering, you will find your definitive stability only in your own creation.
