For more than ten years, I explored many spiritual paths in search of truth. Although I was sincerely seeking, my understanding remained shaped by human perspective. In September 2024, I was baptized. Yet even after that, I still saw Jesus mostly as one spiritual teacher among many.
Recently, something changed in a deeper way. I began to see that truth is not something we construct or interpret according to our own understanding. Instead, it is something we receive when we surrender our own perspective.
This painting emerged during that period of realization. Through the process of acrylic pouring, I experienced the act of letting go of control and allowing the movement of the paint to unfold freely. For me, the process became a reflection of a deeper spiritual lesson: learning to surrender and allow something greater than ourselves to move.
The title references God's self-revelation in Book of Exodus 3:14.
This abstract pouring painting explores the mystery of the Trinity through flowing colors.
Gold represents the Father, red represents the Son, Jesus Christ, and white represents the Holy Spirit.
Through the process of surrendering control and allowing the paint to flow freely, the painting became a reflection on perspective — reminding me that God's perspective is often different from our own.
