Heart Beat (2021) is the rhythmic core of my Pulse of Life Collection — a 72 x 72 inch acrylic painting that explores repetition, vibration, and vitality. It’s a visual echo of life’s most essential force: the beat within us, constant yet ever-changing.
Rendered in waves of crimson, deep burgundy, and intervals of bright white, Heart Beat pulses across the canvas with undulating forms and staccato marks. The work is not illustrative. It doesn’t show a heart — it feels like one. It’s pressure and pause. Expansion and contraction.
The surface is built up like sound: each layer amplifies or dampens the one before it. Vertical lines clash with diagonal sweeps. There's a sense of rhythm struggling to stay consistent, like breath caught in uncertainty. It captures the emotional pulse of its time — the invisible but undeniable tempo of survival, connection, and stress.
The painting resonates with the sensorial intensity of Bridget Riley, known for her optical explorations of movement and frequency. Like Riley, I use repetition to evoke sensation — but my lines falter, bleed, and blur. This is not perfection. This is heartbeat.
Heart Beat is both universal and intimate. It speaks to the biological and the emotional, the physiological and the spiritual. In a world driven by noise, this painting asks you to slow down — to tune in. Not to the world outside, but the pulse within.
