Description
The composition of the painting unfolds as a cohesive rhythmic field built upon the repetition of gold, light blue, and white rhombuses. Set within this geometric structure are 108 cherry blossoms, which lend the precise ornamentation a lively, almost pulsating character.
A large white lotus blooms in the center of the canvas. Its three-dimensional, freely formed structure enters into a dialogue with the precision of the surrounding geometric grid. The flower becomes the focal point of the composition—a point of concentration around which the rhythm of the rhombuses and flowers coalesces into a unified system.
The number 108 is associated with notions of wholeness, the completeness of a cycle, and the orderliness of the world. Each flower occupies its own place within the overall structure while remaining part of a continuous repetition. The combination of gold, sky blue, and white creates a bright, festive space in which geometry takes on the qualities of a meditative image.
The painting combines ornamental precision with the natural three-dimensionality of the flowers. Cherry blossoms set the rhythm of multiplicity, while the lotus embodies a unified center—a moment of full bloom within an orderly space.
