Original artwork description:

This Work was selected and has participated in a National Painting Competition in Argentina. It has been exhibited in a Museum in 2023

The lotus is beautiful, but its beauty in some way is the sublimation of the murky waters from which the plant feeds, in such a way that understanding it as a symbolic element, the lotus refers to the elevation of consciousness, the transition from the mud and the suffering of everyday human experience towards liberation from said suffering or enlightenment.

The essence of Buddhism lies in the conviction that, at every moment, within us there is the capacity to overcome any problem or difficulty that we may encounter in life; the ability to transform any suffering.
Our lives possess this power because they are inseparable from the fundamental law that underlies the functioning of all life and the universe.
