The painting titled Awakening exemplifies the principles of Abstract expressionism with its dynamic brushstrokes and vibrant palette. Its Abstract forms evoke a sense of spontaneity and introspection, inviting viewers to interpret the underlying imagery freely. The artwork's layered textures and bold gestures mirror themes of revelation and enlightenment, akin to the secretive nature of Freemasonry, where records of members can be lost or obscured by time and political suppression. Awakening captures the essence of awakening—both internal and universal—much like the hidden histories and profound connections shared among Freemasons throughout history.
