These symbols, combined with the balance of sacred geometry, are a reflection of an ancient memory that reminds man of his inextricable link with the universal order.

Story

Bringing together sacred geometry—the mathematical order of the universe—and ancient Turkish mythology, this work is a story of existence stretching from the heavens to the earth. While the Double-Headed Eagle at the top symbolizes divine protection, the Tree of Life at the center depicts the soul's journey toward the sky. The upward-pointing triangles in the design express spiritual ascension and ideals, while the downward-pointing triangles represent the material world and staying grounded; the intersection of these two forms reflects the perfect flow and balance within life.

The eight-pointed star at the base seals the four-season cycle of nature and ancient virtues. A protective balance prevails in the borders surrounding the painting: the scorpion motif on the left creates a shield against negative energies, while the ram's horn on the right symbolizes the power and fertility of life. Combined with the balance of sacred geometry, these symbols are a reflection of an ancient memory that reminds humanity of its inextricable link to the universal order.
