Description

This abstract artwork embodies the profound interplay between chaos and order, juxtaposing a dynamic, fluid art pattern against the stabilising influence of a geometric circle. At its core, this introspective piece prompts contemplation on the intrinsic connection between chaos and order—a relationship that appears diametrically opposed yet intricately intertwined. Chaos, by its nature, seems to defy order, yet it paradoxically necessitates it. As form emerges from chaos, so does a unique order—one that defies conventional symmetry but maintains its own inherent structure. This unconventional order is essential for evolution, illustrating how opposing forces can harmonise and coalesce. The artwork reflects the artist Gavin Johnson’s personal journey, drawing parallels to his background in international javelin throwing, where controlled chaos is central. This theme resonates throughout his life and artistic expression. The geometric circle, symbolising love in its all-encompassing, boundless, and multidirectional nature, serves as the unifying force amidst the chaos depicted. It subtly invites viewers to find meaning and coherence in the midst of complexity. The use of gold underscores the theme of abundant thinking, emphasizing the artwork’s message of limitless potential within the circle of life. Ultimately, this piece serves as a profound reminder to the artist of his identity and aspirations—to move forward with love, abundance, and an enduring sense of balance.
