“My work is about diving deep into the vast realms of consciousness, delving into the intricate networks of the mind and unraveling its limitless capabilities. I am fascinated by the enigmatic nature of the human being as a unified entity, intricately connected and pulsating with life, where mind, body, and spirit intertwine in a harmonious dance. In my creative endeavors, I envision the ethereal energy flowing within the labyrinth of the mind, giving rise to wave-like forces that ripple through the artistic process. Guided by intuition and the depths of the subconscious, I am embarking on a daring exploration, venturing into uncharted territories of artistic expression. Through my innovative works, I aim to forge a completely novel and exhilarating artistic paradigm, pushing the boundaries of my own creativity and venturing boldly into unexplored horizons.” – Anna Tierney

My work ‘Flowing”, is about Earth, Nature, and the relationship with ourselves, the Earth and the Cosmos. It’s about how we treat ourselves, the plants and animals, the planet. We are all part of Nature. We are all part of Earth. We need to restore this connection and re-establish harmony, peace, balance, by achieving inner equilibrium and start acting with compassion and kindness, whilst thinking about our actions and how they affect our Earth, collectively and individually. Expanding upon these ideas, it is crucial for us to recognize that our existence is intricately intertwined with the natural world that surrounds us. Each action we take, no matter how small, has the potential to impact the delicate balance of our environment. Therefore, it is imperative that we foster a sense of interconnectedness with the Earth, acknowledging that we are not separate entities, but rather an integral part of the intricate web of life. Furthermore, by embracing a mindset of empathy and compassion, we can strive towards repairing the damage that has been done and cultivate a sustainable future for generations to come. It is through this conscious and thoughtful approach that we can restore harmony and equilibrium, not only within ourselves, but also within the world we inhabit. Let us remember that the choices we make today will have far-reaching consequences, and it is our responsibility to make decisions that prioritize the well-being of our planet and all its inhabitants.
