The third painting of this series is called “Defying gravity”. It is about the feeling of loosing ground, loosing control and watching all your belongings, the possessions that once had a defined place in your surroundings becoming misplaced, out of order and out of reach. Your comfort zone is no longer there, you can’t rely on the way things used to be. Defying gravity messes up with your send of stability and safety. You are in a new place but you don’t belong, you dont understand how things work there yet. Being foreigner is an overwhelming sensation, specially in the beginning. You need to find connection and meaning to be able to function again. You must relearn the basics and find your own meaning and balance. You must regain your senses. Once you find your feet standing again on firm new ground you know nothing will be quite the same as they used to be.

This series can be viewed and purchased at MakslaXO Gallery in Riga, Latvia.
