In the Ruin, We Bloom XXXV

The ruins, overtaken by moss and time, create a canvas for this fine art self-portrait, where life and decay meet. The figure, caught between earth and sky, embodies the human desire to grow, even in the most adverse conditions. The vibrant red shirt is a whisper of color in a monochromatic world, a reminder of life’s persistence. "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right-doing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there," wrote Rumi, and in this image, we are invited to that liminal space between ruin and bloom.
