      <image:caption>"Coastal Colours 1" is part of a series of abstract paintings that captures the essence of a serene seashore where the sea, sand, and sky converge. This artwork embodies both dynamism and tranquility, reflecting the ever-changing yet calming nature of the ocean. I am deeply drawn to the ocean, finding inspiration in everything about it—the crashing waves, the soft sand, and the shifting hues of the sea across different times of day and seasons. This painting is my attempt to encapsulate a single fleeting moment from the infinite beauty and inspiration the ocean offers.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 1 - Confluence 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve always loved those places where colors meet. They merge into each other, but still hold on to who they are. And in that in-between space, something new shows up— a shade, a hue, a little surprise with its own character. Painting feels a lot like life. We blend, we change, we carry pieces of ourselves into whatever comes next. Confluence 1 is one such artwork.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 1 - Cascade 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cascade focuses on the in-between moments where colours meet and play off one another. They blend at the edges without losing their own identity, creating unexpected tones where they overlap. There’s a sense of movement across the surface, as if each layer is aware of the one beneath it. Together, these shifting relationships reflect a way of seeing the world that’s always changing, yet still shaped by everything that came before.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 1 - Mrida 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mrida—derived from Sanskrit—means soil, earth, or clay. More than the ground beneath our feet, it embodies one of the five great elements: foundation, fertility, and the silent witness to time’s passage. The Mrida Series is an abstract exploration of earth in its many forms—soil, clay, and stone. When observed closely, the ground reveals a spectrum of colors and textures, from subtle to striking. A visit to Mumbai, where deep volcanic soil made surrounding greens glow almost fluorescent, inspired this reflection on the overlooked beauty of earth’s shades.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"Coastal Colours 1" is part of a series of abstract paintings that captures the essence of a serene seashore where the sea, sand, and sky converge. This artwork embodies both dynamism and tranquility, reflecting the ever-changing yet calming nature of the ocean. I am deeply drawn to the ocean, finding inspiration in everything about it—the crashing waves, the soft sand, and the shifting hues of the sea across different times of day and seasons. This painting is my attempt to encapsulate a single fleeting moment from the infinite beauty and inspiration the ocean offers.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 2 - Confluence 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve always loved those places where colors meet. They merge into each other, but still hold on to who they are. And in that in-between space, something new shows up— a shade, a hue, a little surprise with its own character. Painting feels a lot like life. We blend, we change, we carry pieces of ourselves into whatever comes next. Confluence 1 is one such artwork.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 2 - Cascade 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cascade focuses on the in-between moments where colours meet and play off one another. They blend at the edges without losing their own identity, creating unexpected tones where they overlap. There’s a sense of movement across the surface, as if each layer is aware of the one beneath it. Together, these shifting relationships reflect a way of seeing the world that’s always changing, yet still shaped by everything that came before.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Coastal Colours 2 - Mrida 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mrida—derived from Sanskrit—means soil, earth, or clay. More than the ground beneath our feet, it embodies one of the five great elements: foundation, fertility, and the silent witness to time’s passage. The Mrida Series is an abstract exploration of earth in its many forms—soil, clay, and stone. When observed closely, the ground reveals a spectrum of colors and textures, from subtle to striking. A visit to Mumbai, where deep volcanic soil made surrounding greens glow almost fluorescent, inspired this reflection on the overlooked beauty of earth’s shades.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Painted live at Broadcast Asia in 2023. This semi abstract floral series presents paradoxes of colours, done in a cinematic palette of Jean-Pierre Jeunet's film Amelie, 2001. Green and red are intense in the movie and this is represented by how I use those colours in the main abstract motifs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Wong Kar Way - Deep Forest</image:title>
      <image:caption>This painting doesn’t ask to be looked at — it asks to be walked into. Lush and layered, it pulls the eye toward what waits on the other side, where light thins and the forest deepens. A direct expression of Shinrin Yoku, the Japanese practice of forest bathing, rendered as part of an ongoing series of works on paper.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Irina is a contemporary Russian-born British painter, residing in Singapore since 2017. Living in a tropical climate has reshaped the artist’s subject matter and palette. Aware that her time in Singapore is limited, Irina feels compelled to record as much as she can of what she observes around her on canvas. She offers viewers a different perspective on familiar surroundings — seen through the eyes of an outsider, a guest in this landscape. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This still life pairs vibrant orchids with ripe persimmons, balancing elegance and abundance. The flowing brushwork and rich reds, golds, and deep greens evoke prosperity, harmony, and seasonal change. Rooted in observation yet expressive in handling, the composition celebrates colour, vitality, and the quiet refinement of everyday beauty.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Spring Bouquet captures the gentle freshness of the season in a loose, expressive arrangement of white and blue blooms.

      <image:caption>The Garden City is a non-objective abstraction inspired by Singapore’s lush identity and layered urban landscape. Rather than depicting a specific view, the painting distils personal impressions of greenery, density, reflection, and light into a rhythmic composition of colour and form — an emotional response to the city’s vibrant, living pulse.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Margarita Buttenmueller is a Singapore-based contemporary artist working predominantly with oil and acrylic mediums. Originally from Russia, she also lived in Germany, UK, USA, and twice in Singapore, each place shaping her artistic voice. Her art journey started in 2012 by taking painting classes as a hobby in one of the art studios in Singapore. Later in London, she attended such art schools as The Art Academy, Morley College, and Central Saint Martins while having a full-time job in a tech startup. Upon moving to New York in 2016, Margarita gave up her career in marketing to become a full-time artist. She attended classes in the Art Students League of New York and Bridgeview School of Fine Arts, and participated in a few exhibitions in New York City prior to moving back to Singapore.

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Pink Sunset 1 - Pink Sunset #1</image:title>
      <image:caption>Pink Sunset 1 is inspired by a breathtaking sunset over the Sembawang area of Singapore, which I was lucky enough to witness during a boat ride through the northern waters of the island. It was a covid time and during that period, we began exploring parts of Singapore we had never seen before. Taking a boat out into its waters felt like the furthest we could possibly go at the time. Just as the trip was coming to an end, the sky suddenly transformed - an extraordinary pink sunset spread across the horizon. It felt almost symbolic - a little reminder to cherish life's small moments, especially when the world feels restricted. In this painting, the main focus is the water. I was drawn to the rhythm of the waves, their movement, their unpredictability, and I wanted to capture that living energy: powerful, restless and deeply beautiful.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Pink Sunset 1 - Sentosa Sunrise 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>"Sentosa Sunrise #3" was born out of one of my early morning walks by the water on Sentosa. The sun was just coming up, spreading that warm golden light across the horizon, and the sea felt completely alive - full of small, restless waves catching the light. I was completely drawn to the colors of that sunrise - the soft peaches and pinks melting into yellow, the cool blues of the water shifting with every movement. That contrast felt magical, and I knew I wanted to bring those colors home with me and let them live on the canvas. So this piece became my way of holding onto that sunrise - translating those warm skies and shimmering blues into paint, and trying to capture not just the view, but the feeling of that glowing, peaceful beginning of the day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Pink Sunset 1 - Evening Stroll through Gardens by the Bay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Inspired by the lush beauty of Gardens by the Bay, this painting captures the vibrancy and energy of Singapore’s tropical flora. The scene showcases the striking contrast between deep blue Philodendron leaves and the fiery golden ferns, creating a bold and immersive composition. Rather than portraying nature in its natural hues, I reimagined the landscape with vivid, unexpected colors - intensifying the interplay of light, shadow, and movement. The intricate details of the leaves and their dynamic arrangement evoke a sense of rhythm, as if the foliage is swaying in harmony with the tropical breeze. This piece is an invitation to experience nature beyond its familiar form, seeing it through a lens of artistic expression - where colors pulse with life, and the ordinary transforms into something magical.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Pink Sunset 1 - Ti Plant</image:title>
      <image:caption>The inspiration behind "Ti Plant" oil painting in blue shades stems from a desire to explore the intersection of nature and imagination through color. The ti plant, known for its vibrant green and red foliage, is reimagined in a serene palette of blues to evoke a sense of calm and introspection. The choice of blue shades reflects the plant’s symbolic qualities of transformation and resilience, with each hue representing different facets of its essence. The cool tones of blue convey a sense of tranquility and depth, inviting viewers to experience the ti plant not just as a living entity but as a source of peaceful contemplation. The use of oil paint enhances the rich, layered quality of the blue tones, capturing the subtle variations and nuances of the plant’s leaves. This approach creates a soothing and dreamlike atmosphere, allowing the ti plant to emerge as a symbol of quiet strength and serene beauty. Overall, the painting serves as a meditative exploration of how nature can be transformed through artistic vision, encouraging viewers to see familiar subjects from a fresh and contemplative perspective.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Pink Sunset 1 - Tropical Radiance</image:title>
      <image:caption>This painting was inspired by the lush, tropical landscapes that surround me in Singapore. I wanted to capture the sheer vibrancy and drama of nature here - the bold crimson leaves layered like a canopy against glimpses of turquoise sky. The intense reds, offset with flashes of pink, purple, and electric blue, create a rhythm that feels both alive and immersive, as if you’re standing beneath the leaves, looking up into a living tapestry of color. It’s a celebration of tropical abundance, of the way sunlight transforms foliage into a glowing spectacle, and of how nature, in all its unapologetic beauty, can fill a space with energy and warmth.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Sentosa Sunrise 3 - Evening Stroll through Gardens by the Bay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Inspired by the lush beauty of Gardens by the Bay, this painting captures the vibrancy and energy of Singapore’s tropical flora. The scene showcases the striking contrast between deep blue Philodendron leaves and the fiery golden ferns, creating a bold and immersive composition. Rather than portraying nature in its natural hues, I reimagined the landscape with vivid, unexpected colors - intensifying the interplay of light, shadow, and movement. The intricate details of the leaves and their dynamic arrangement evoke a sense of rhythm, as if the foliage is swaying in harmony with the tropical breeze. This piece is an invitation to experience nature beyond its familiar form, seeing it through a lens of artistic expression - where colors pulse with life, and the ordinary transforms into something magical.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Sentosa Sunrise 3 - Ti Plant</image:title>
      <image:caption>The inspiration behind "Ti Plant" oil painting in blue shades stems from a desire to explore the intersection of nature and imagination through color. The ti plant, known for its vibrant green and red foliage, is reimagined in a serene palette of blues to evoke a sense of calm and introspection. The choice of blue shades reflects the plant’s symbolic qualities of transformation and resilience, with each hue representing different facets of its essence. The cool tones of blue convey a sense of tranquility and depth, inviting viewers to experience the ti plant not just as a living entity but as a source of peaceful contemplation. The use of oil paint enhances the rich, layered quality of the blue tones, capturing the subtle variations and nuances of the plant’s leaves. This approach creates a soothing and dreamlike atmosphere, allowing the ti plant to emerge as a symbol of quiet strength and serene beauty. Overall, the painting serves as a meditative exploration of how nature can be transformed through artistic vision, encouraging viewers to see familiar subjects from a fresh and contemplative perspective.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This painting was inspired by the lush, tropical landscapes that surround me in Singapore. I wanted to capture the sheer vibrancy and drama of nature here - the bold crimson leaves layered like a canopy against glimpses of turquoise sky. The intense reds, offset with flashes of pink, purple, and electric blue, create a rhythm that feels both alive and immersive, as if you’re standing beneath the leaves, looking up into a living tapestry of color. It’s a celebration of tropical abundance, of the way sunlight transforms foliage into a glowing spectacle, and of how nature, in all its unapologetic beauty, can fill a space with energy and warmth.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Evening Stroll through Gardens by the Bay - Pink Sunset 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>Pink Sunset 1 is inspired by a breathtaking sunset over the Sembawang area of Singapore, which I was lucky enough to witness during a boat ride through the northern waters of the island. It was a covid time and during that period, we began exploring parts of Singapore we had never seen before. Taking a boat out into its waters felt like the furthest we could possibly go at the time. Just as the trip was coming to an end, the sky suddenly transformed - an extraordinary pink sunset spread across the horizon. It felt almost symbolic - a little reminder to cherish life's small moments, especially when the world feels restricted. In this painting, the main focus is the water. I was drawn to the rhythm of the waves, their movement, their unpredictability, and I wanted to capture that living energy: powerful, restless and deeply beautiful.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Evening Stroll through Gardens by the Bay - Sentosa Sunrise 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>"Sentosa Sunrise #3" was born out of one of my early morning walks by the water on Sentosa. The sun was just coming up, spreading that warm golden light across the horizon, and the sea felt completely alive - full of small, restless waves catching the light. I was completely drawn to the colors of that sunrise - the soft peaches and pinks melting into yellow, the cool blues of the water shifting with every movement. That contrast felt magical, and I knew I wanted to bring those colors home with me and let them live on the canvas. So this piece became my way of holding onto that sunrise - translating those warm skies and shimmering blues into paint, and trying to capture not just the view, but the feeling of that glowing, peaceful beginning of the day.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Pink Sunset 1 is inspired by a breathtaking sunset over the Sembawang area of Singapore, which I was lucky enough to witness during a boat ride through the northern waters of the island. It was a covid time and during that period, we began exploring parts of Singapore we had never seen before. Taking a boat out into its waters felt like the furthest we could possibly go at the time. Just as the trip was coming to an end, the sky suddenly transformed - an extraordinary pink sunset spread across the horizon. It felt almost symbolic - a little reminder to cherish life's small moments, especially when the world feels restricted. In this painting, the main focus is the water. I was drawn to the rhythm of the waves, their movement, their unpredictability, and I wanted to capture that living energy: powerful, restless and deeply beautiful.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Tropical Radiance - Sentosa Sunrise 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>"Sentosa Sunrise #3" was born out of one of my early morning walks by the water on Sentosa. The sun was just coming up, spreading that warm golden light across the horizon, and the sea felt completely alive - full of small, restless waves catching the light. I was completely drawn to the colors of that sunrise - the soft peaches and pinks melting into yellow, the cool blues of the water shifting with every movement. That contrast felt magical, and I knew I wanted to bring those colors home with me and let them live on the canvas. So this piece became my way of holding onto that sunrise - translating those warm skies and shimmering blues into paint, and trying to capture not just the view, but the feeling of that glowing, peaceful beginning of the day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Tropical Radiance - Evening Stroll through Gardens by the Bay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Inspired by the lush beauty of Gardens by the Bay, this painting captures the vibrancy and energy of Singapore’s tropical flora. The scene showcases the striking contrast between deep blue Philodendron leaves and the fiery golden ferns, creating a bold and immersive composition. Rather than portraying nature in its natural hues, I reimagined the landscape with vivid, unexpected colors - intensifying the interplay of light, shadow, and movement. The intricate details of the leaves and their dynamic arrangement evoke a sense of rhythm, as if the foliage is swaying in harmony with the tropical breeze. This piece is an invitation to experience nature beyond its familiar form, seeing it through a lens of artistic expression - where colors pulse with life, and the ordinary transforms into something magical.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Tropical Radiance - Ti Plant</image:title>
      <image:caption>The inspiration behind "Ti Plant" oil painting in blue shades stems from a desire to explore the intersection of nature and imagination through color. The ti plant, known for its vibrant green and red foliage, is reimagined in a serene palette of blues to evoke a sense of calm and introspection. The choice of blue shades reflects the plant’s symbolic qualities of transformation and resilience, with each hue representing different facets of its essence. The cool tones of blue convey a sense of tranquility and depth, inviting viewers to experience the ti plant not just as a living entity but as a source of peaceful contemplation. The use of oil paint enhances the rich, layered quality of the blue tones, capturing the subtle variations and nuances of the plant’s leaves. This approach creates a soothing and dreamlike atmosphere, allowing the ti plant to emerge as a symbol of quiet strength and serene beauty. Overall, the painting serves as a meditative exploration of how nature can be transformed through artistic vision, encouraging viewers to see familiar subjects from a fresh and contemplative perspective.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This painting was inspired by the lush, tropical landscapes that surround me in Singapore. I wanted to capture the sheer vibrancy and drama of nature here - the bold crimson leaves layered like a canopy against glimpses of turquoise sky. The intense reds, offset with flashes of pink, purple, and electric blue, create a rhythm that feels both alive and immersive, as if you’re standing beneath the leaves, looking up into a living tapestry of color. It’s a celebration of tropical abundance, of the way sunlight transforms foliage into a glowing spectacle, and of how nature, in all its unapologetic beauty, can fill a space with energy and warmth.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Jillian Cheong is a Singaporean artist who strongly believes that art should inspire hope and celebrate beauty. A turning point in her art practice was when she came down with Long Covid in 2022, with crippling fatigue, giddy spells and brain fog. This left her unable to fulfill her roles as wife, mother, daughter, and artist, and caused her to re-evaluate her way of measuring success, and to grapple with the concepts of identity, worth and value. Through this journey, she has learned to celebrate each moment and to value each individual for who they are and not what they do. These themes carry strongly in her artworks. Nature is often her source of inspiration, in both imagery and metaphor. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Jillian Cheong is a Singaporean artist who strongly believes that art should inspire hope and celebrate beauty. A turning point in her art practice was when she came down with Long Covid in 2022, with crippling fatigue, giddy spells and brain fog. This left her unable to fulfill her roles as wife, mother, daughter, and artist, and caused her to re-evaluate her way of measuring success, and to grapple with the concepts of identity, worth and value. Through this journey, she has learned to celebrate each moment and to value each individual for who they are and not what they do. These themes carry strongly in her artworks. Nature is often her source of inspiration, in both imagery and metaphor. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

Layers of acrylic and fabric guide the eye from the lush greenery to the sparkling lake beyond, creating the sense of stepping into a private, magical world. This fleeting moment—soft, serene, and alive with light—reminds us to pause, take a breath, and notice the small wonders that quietly surround us.</image:caption>

The composition feels tidal — powerful yet controlled — as structured lines emerge beneath expressive movement.

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Morning at Emerald Hill - Berenika Drazewska</image:title>
      <image:caption>Berenika sees painting as a subtle non-verbal language that speaks to the depth of feeling stirred up by the beauty of the natural world. Rooted in the figurative painting tradition, Berenika’s paintings specifically explore ephemeral light across a range of painting media: watercolours, oils, acrylics and soft pastels. Relying on a sense of space and gently disappearing edges, she evokes the poetry of flickering light and shadow. Her process is highly intuitive, grounded in deep introspection and a fascination with pigments and the material qualities of paint. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This artwork painted in 2026 is inspired by a plein air session in the Emerald Hill neighborhood in Singapore, one of my favourite locations to paint. In combination with the cast shadows on the shophouses, the ornamental emerald green tiles tangled in the surrounding greenery make for a unique, charming scene.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Lau Pa Sat is a well-known landmark in Singapore, but it is also a place of unique atmosphere. My favourite time there is between the lunchtime bustle and the madness of the blue smoke from the satay grills at night, when the market temporarily quiets down and I can admire the lacelike Victorian ironwork.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Eco Lake is a quiet, atmospheric place in the Botanic Gardens that is home to some very graceful black swans. I personally come there to look at the beautiful, delicate reflections. They just seem to suggest that another world lies just beneath the surface of water...</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Morning at Emerald Hill - Bali Morning Light</image:title>
      <image:caption>This artwork was inspired by a trip to Ubud, which is my favourite place in Bali. One morning I was woken up very early by the sounds of chanting from a nearby temple and of roosters crowing, and I was not too happy about that! But then I stepped outside and saw these gorgeous swathes of golden light on the dense greenery… I was so glad to witness this spectacle of nature!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Morning at Emerald Hill - Monks’ Laundry Day</image:title>
      <image:caption>This painting was inspired by a trip to Laos. While walking near a Buddhist monastery I saw a washing line of orange monk robes glowing against a cobalt blue sky. I was immediately captured by the powerful chromatic contrasts and the simple beauty of the scene.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Berenika sees painting as a subtle non-verbal language that speaks to the depth of feeling stirred up by the beauty of the natural world. Rooted in the figurative painting tradition, Berenika’s paintings specifically explore ephemeral light across a range of painting media: watercolours, oils, acrylics and soft pastels. Relying on a sense of space and gently disappearing edges, she evokes the poetry of flickering light and shadow. Her process is highly intuitive, grounded in deep introspection and a fascination with pigments and the material qualities of paint. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This artwork was inspired by a trip to Ubud, which is my favourite place in Bali. One morning I was woken up very early by the sounds of chanting from a nearby temple and of roosters crowing, and I was not too happy about that! But then I stepped outside and saw these gorgeous swathes of golden light on the dense greenery… I was so glad to witness this spectacle of nature!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"Coastal Colours 1" is part of a series of abstract paintings that captures the essence of a serene seashore where the sea, sand, and sky converge. This artwork embodies both dynamism and tranquility, reflecting the ever-changing yet calming nature of the ocean. I am deeply drawn to the ocean, finding inspiration in everything about it—the crashing waves, the soft sand, and the shifting hues of the sea across different times of day and seasons. This painting is my attempt to encapsulate a single fleeting moment from the infinite beauty and inspiration the ocean offers.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Mrida 3 - Confluence 1 (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve always loved those places where colors meet. They merge into each other, but still hold on to who they are. And in that in-between space, something new shows up— a shade, a hue, a little surprise with its own character. Painting feels a lot like life. We blend, we change, we carry pieces of ourselves into whatever comes next. Confluence 1 is one such artwork.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Artwork Collections - Mrida 3 - Cascade 1 (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cascade focuses on the in-between moments where colours meet and play off one another. They blend at the edges without losing their own identity, creating unexpected tones where they overlap. There’s a sense of movement across the surface, as if each layer is aware of the one beneath it. Together, these shifting relationships reflect a way of seeing the world that’s always changing, yet still shaped by everything that came before.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mrida—derived from Sanskrit—means soil, earth, or clay. More than the ground beneath our feet, it embodies one of the five great elements: foundation, fertility, and the silent witness to time’s passage. The Mrida Series is an abstract exploration of earth in its many forms—soil, clay, and stone. When observed closely, the ground reveals a spectrum of colors and textures, from subtle to striking. A visit to Mumbai, where deep volcanic soil made surrounding greens glow almost fluorescent, inspired this reflection on the overlooked beauty of earth’s shades.</image:caption>

Her work sits where documentation meets imagination. It begins with immersive photography on location, capturing fleeting elements: shifting light, moving water, transient weather, the cadence of foliage and human presence. These photographs are not final images, but impressions and perspectives to be recomposed. Visit Artist Page</image:caption>

Her work sits where documentation meets imagination. It begins with immersive photography on location, capturing fleeting elements: shifting light, moving water, transient weather, the cadence of foliage and human presence.

We can’t speak, we don’t want to dance, or express ourselves; choosing isolation.  Once the grieving process is complete we ascend from the isolation unblocking the energy center (denoted by gold kintsugi lines). We are able to move forward with a sense of peace representing the 7th chakra located in the crown whose aura is purple.</image:caption>
