Subhūti

In this work, cabbage resembles mountains, melons echo drifting clouds—each still life quietly vibrating with insight. Subhūti has been formally included in the artist’s Beverly Hills Collector Private viewing. “What Does the Buddha Look Like?” was celebrated as a central statement in the series: one that reflects the Buddha not as a figure, but as the essence within all forms. More than a painting, it is a meditative invitation to perceive reality beyond illusion.
