Description of the Artwork “Among The Muddy Water”
The Lotus Flower grows from the bottom of stream and muddy ponds to rise above the water and bloom. At night, it closes and sinks below the water, just to resurface again, untamed the next day. Fully grounded in the earth, yet always rising, the lotus flower lives in the muddy water, yet remains unsoiled. “May I live like the lotus, at ease among the muddy water”
Rebekah Molander, United States
Gustav Klimt said "Art is a line around your thoughts.” I love that. That is exactly what art is to me. All my thoughts that are constantly running through my mind, all my words that that are constantly failing me. Things I want to say, but I’m not sure how, that’s why I paint. All the beautiful things and all the sad things that are in that I don’t know how to get out. And if means something to someone else, if they can see it and think I’ve felt that, or thought that and didn’t know how to say it, than that is even better. But mostly my art is just a collection of my thoughts, my dreams, my feelings, my stories I never told anyone.
