Full Moon began as a painting layered with color fields, and rose petals—an ephemeral arrangement of beauty and impermanence. The work then passed through a series of transformations: wrapped into a bundle, sealed with clay infused with herbs, plants, and spices, and embedded with symbolic elements that expand its meaning.
Incorporating coins (value), circuits (thought), herbs (medicine), and clay (earth) adds layers of significance: technology meets ritual, commerce meets nature. The surface was then carved with asemic writing—an invented script that resists direct translation yet carries symbolic weight, suggesting invocation, secrecy, and memory.
The result is a hybrid form that hovers between painting, sculpture, and relic: a talismanic object that feels both contemporary and timeless. Like the full moon itself, the piece embodies a moment of culmination and fullness, enclosing its hidden layers in silence and offering presence rather than explanation.
From painting to enclosed object
Colour fields and rose petals are enclosed within a clay-sealed bundle. Coins, circuits, herbs and spices enter the object; asemic writing is carved into its outer surface.
