Dreamers

By Adi orean

My paintings celebrate the exuberance of life. High divers soar through open spaces of color and texture as a metaphor for human’s ancient obsession with flying, a dream etched into our being. I invite the viewer to take a leap of faith into the greater unknown, where notions of mystery, curiosity and risk are matched with feelings of bravery, courage, and passion.

This very personal series of paintings show people jumping, diving, and flying into the vast and unknown future. The diver is an emblem of freedom; their flight is free, determined, graceful yet calculated. They are confident in knowing they will land, and that everything will be okay. My work illuminates the journey and the act of taking chances to find ultimate fulfillment. I am guided by the light, and strive for the silver lining – a reality all of humanity has faced in the past number of years.
