In her new painting series Evanescent Echoes, Yumiko Glover explores the beauty of nature through a transitory, cross-cultural lens of Japanese history and philosophy mixed with contemporary influences of her Southern California home. In this new series of paintings, she is tethered to her past by the calm and orderly aesthetics of Japanese gardens employing traditional elements of the bonsai tree, koi fish and rocks. Abstract forms, contemporary colors and technological ques now permeate these reconstructed dreams and recollections presenting an inspiring and satisfying hybrid. "Zen philosophy, particularly the ideas of impermanence and interconnectedness, plays a key role in this work. The precise shapes of bonsai, the fluidity of koi, and the structured garden landscapes evoke the subtle transformations of the natural world. These images become metaphors for change, illustrating how our relationship with nature is always evolving.
"Evanescent Echoes encourages viewers to engage with the present moment, where tranquility and the vibrant energy of contemporary life intersect. Through these works, I invite you to reflect on the beauty of life’s impermanent and imperfect moments, viewing them not as loss, but as a source of energy and vitality."
