enya el – open the blinds

In the noise of our expectations lead by ego and fear we feel trapped, crushed, longing for a moment of silence. We want lucidity and to see a clear picture of ourselves. As close as we might be to ourselves, as far is the way to such a realization.

Running in circles, longing for another result but stuck in a repeated behavior pattern. An oppressive inner world of thoughts visualized by a round room.  The color red symbolizes the alarming and unpleasant sense. We are going through various emotions that we feel through gestures and facial expressions. Being mostly naked as we can’t hide us within ourselves, vulnerable place. Raindrops hitting the unprotected skin to emphasize all the small negative thoughts and resistances in everyday life. Trying to focus on the difficulties, they might overwhelm us and we want to flee.

Detached from negativity, the outer world serves us as the escape. Surrounded by nature, silence, and the deep blue of the sky it tells us that we are only at the beginning of our journey.
