UN-BREAK FOCUS

While meditating and often during the day I try to concentrate my attention exclusively to one single thing, thought, or idea at a time. I try to concentrate so intensely that everything else, but the object of my attention loses its importance. However, no matter how hard I try, many times my mind wanders in its “own” direction, “breaking” my focus.

Of course, having my mind wandering during meditation is perfectly normal and that bringing my attention back is simply part of the process.

Through the works presented in this series, I tried to symbolise a representation, in a physical form, of the loss of attention, of the mind that goes on its way as the acrylic cracks go uncontrolled on their way.
