'CRANE' (WHIRLING DERVISHES)'
OIL ON CANVAS
48" x 36" iINCHES

THE 'CRANE' REFLECTS THE SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS EVOKED BY THE MYSTICISM OF THE WHIRLING DERVISHES.....FLIGHT SEEN AS METAPHOR FOR TRANSCENDENTAL EXPLORATION OF THE SOUL.

THE POWER SYBOLISM FOUND IN EASTERN ESOTERICS OF THE CRANE SUGGESTS A MULTI-VERSE WITHIN THE COSMIC CELESTIAL PARADIGM. THE SUFI REFERENCES FURTHER ENHANCE THE 'LOVE HEAT', AS EXPRESSED IN THE POETRY OF RUMI AND THE MUSIC OF MERCAN DEDE (THE CONTEMPORARY TURKISH MUSICIAN ) WHICH FUSED TO INSPIRE THIS WORK.
