This is one of the paintings from my series Spontaneity of Chaotic Rhythms. It's an abstract oil painting on 136x196 cm canvas. The series as a whole has been a learning experience, about myself and my art. When I first had my hands on the canvases I was very scared of that great big white space, it was really hard for me to believe in myself. I was struggling with questions such as "How am I going to start?", "How can I portray what I feel?", "How can I show myself as an artist?". As I had started to push myself I became more confident and I wasn't scared anymore to express how I was feeling on canvas. During the process of making this series, I was only focusing on my movements, my feelings, and the music I was listening to. The chaos that emerges from my paintings comes from my variations of feelings, movements, and again the music I was listening to as I was painting. However, there is also a harmony created by those elements even though they were always different, which I believe reflects me.
