Getting In

In today’s fast-paced world, we rarely take the time to reflect on our day and our emotions. We rush through life, resembling machines rather than humans. Neglecting self-care and emotional awareness, we lose touch with ourselves and struggle to share positivity with others.

The aim with the artwork is to bring attention to the importance of mindfulness and self-care on physical, mental, and spiritual levels. By exhaling and embracing relaxation, we can nurture ourselves and, in turn, nurture the world. What better place to find solace than in a warm, inviting bath? 

Using vibrant colors, bold lines, and expressive brushstrokes, the strength and willpower inherent in each individual is emphasized, especially when self-care is prioritized. Within the artwork, you can observe the molecular structure of methionine-enkaphalin, a pentapeptide produced in the body. This compound plays a significant role in memory, learning, emotional behavior, and pain regulation. Just as a balanced enkephalin level is necessary for optimal brain function, finding balance in life is crucial.
