The Root of Being” - Original painting by Shirly Maimon
The Story Behind the Painting🖌️
This painting was born out of a moment of stillness, from the deep human need to find an inner anchor in a world that never stops moving.
Where do we truly meet ourselves when all the background noise fades away? We meet ourselves within the layers of who we are, and that is exactly how this piece is built. Just like life itself, it is composed of different parts coming together, revealing something new every single time.
The warm tones of earth, sand, and mustard represent the raw materials of the soul. These are the layers that have built up within us over time—our memories, our insights, and all the experience we’ve gathered along the way. Every layer in the painting is a piece of our story, part of the foundation that shapes us.
The bright light breaking through the colors doesn't come from the outside. It comes from deep within, a reminder that our true stability never depends on anything external. The more you look at it, the more you realize this light has always been there, just waiting for us to pause and give it space.
"The Root of Being" For me, this painting is a simple reminder to breathe. To agree to stop, connect to the ground, to your heart, and just be there completely.
For international orders, the painting will be shipped rolled in a protective tube, Ready to be stretched locally.
