I Love My Life, 2022

I have created these images in admiration of vast spaces of land alive with wild growth and beauty, a world that runs intuitively.
Here, there is no resistance. All is accepted — the shapes, the size, the life, the death, the creation and destruction, and time itself. For such lands, time has no meaning. Trees have lived for hundreds of years, yet no one seems to be keeping track.
Everything is in agreement. Every branch, every blade of grass, every leaf has unequivocally yielded to the eternal flow. And one day they will surrender to decay and dissolve back into the earth.

Surrendered Land is a collection that came about accidentally(not a great first line - change), out of slight boredom, from mindlessly observing nature over a long period of time.
Not being naturally inclined towards nature it was something I did not really enjoy doing but I was meant to, if I needed to understand what surrendering means.
And why did I need to learn that?
The direction to ‘go and observe nature’ came to me at the time when I was living begrudgingly, finding it quite inconvenient to keep myself alive, grieving a life of despair, wondering how did this life come about.

Wild
A poem by Mudita Aeron
There’s no one tending to this land
And still everything grows
Wildly
Abundantly
As if it knows exactly what to do
⠀
There’s a kind of intelligence here
Not the kind that we can control or measure
Not the kind that logic dictates or reason reasons
But the kind that emerges when things are left to be
⠀
I think this is what surrender looks like
Not passive but powerful
Not empty but deeply alive
Not wanting
Not caring
Simply being

Why 'Churning Of The Ocean' is more relevant than ever?
I created this portrait series ten years ago, but with the ever-widening gap between dualities, the weight of multiplicity, and relentlessness of choice, its context feels more urgent now.
