“Lunar Solar Duality” is a visual symphony that combines biblical narratives, Egyptian mythology, Tarot symbolism, science fiction concepts, and Vedic cosmology to explore the human condition. The canvas features Saturn, a celestial representation of time and experience, symbolizing wisdom gained through time. The lotus, reminiscent of Hindu god Brahma, symbolizes the cycle of creation and renewal in the cosmos. The character’s hands hold the red pill and blue pill, symbolizing the choice between awakening to harsh reality or remaining in the illusion. The Egyptian ankh, a timeless symbol of life, symbolizes the cosmic dance of creation and destruction. The Holy Grail, an emblem of knowledge and enlightenment, crowns the tapestry, urging the viewer to ascend towards the apex of their understanding.
