The work appears to be a botanical study, but its layered symbolism and refined execution invite the viewer into a deeper contemplation of natureβs invisible forces.

Though created during her conventional, realistic phase, this self-portrait feels like a threshold: the last calm moment before she stepped into the unknown.

At the very centre lies a multicoloured target of concentric rings against a red ground, and only when you come very close do you discover the paintingβs secret heart..

The painting immediately draws the viewerβs eye toward its center, where four elongated, abstract swan forms extend inward from each corner of the canvas, their beaks meeting at a single radiant point.

The painting feels perfectly symmetrical yet vibrating with tension, like the moment before reconciliation or transcendence.Β

This painting has reached complete stillness: every line is measured, every circle drawn with a compass, every form balanced as though the entire universe has finally come to rest in harmonious resolution.

This work depicts the final stage of human lifeβold ageβnot as decline, but as a profound phase of spiritual integration and unity.

The recurring letters "u" (spirit), "w" (matter), and "s" function not as a rigid code but as flexible mantras, akin to "ohm" in yoga.

This expansive piece, showcases letter-like symbolsβincluding the distinctive word "vestalasket" (interpreted as "Vestal ascetic").

Created in 1907, this large-scale painting evokes themes of growth, duality, and the mysteries of adult life.

Notably, the artwork incorporates cryptic letters, symbols, and formsβlike snails symbolizing gradual development and crosses denoting divine connections.

Symbolically, the painting represents youth's lively energy and growth, with motifs like spirals (symbolizing progress and personal development), shells, flowers, and segmented circles evoking organic and cosmic forms.
