Our tethered soul

Original oil on canvas painting
Canvas size 24 x 32”
Framed size 32” x 40”
My Painting titled 'Our Tethered soul' was inspired by the poems of Sufi Poet Rumi. The painting represents a paradox of our human condition. The idea that we are tethered to the soil by our earthly body while our mind and consiousness is free to soar through the universe. The struggle to consolidate our godlike mind with our animal body which inevitably deteriorates and dies. The bird, hanging, trapped from a tether represents our spirit while the girl wades deep into the cold waters of physical human nature.
