Ashvin Harrison
The Garden Girl (Original Hand Painting)

2024

About the Item

A masterful fusion of realism, expressionism, and abstraction, The Garden of the Mind is a breathtaking exploration of nature’s beauty and the limitless depth of human contemplation. In this striking large-scale creation, Ashvin Harrison captures the essence of existential wonder through the feminine form, symbolising the boundless possibilities that flourish within the mind. The monochromatic figure, brush smudged and painted with Ashvin’s signature use of coconut charcoal powder, emerges in serene elegance—her contemplative state embodying a moment of introspection. A wild and vivid botanical explosion bursts forth from her mind, representing the thoughts, dreams, and inspirations that shape her reality. The interplay of precise realism and free-flowing expressionism creates a mesmerising visual contrast, enhanced by masterful use of the Golden Ratio for perfect compositional balance. Intricately painted Monarch butterflies, a blue wren, a bee, and a ladybug gracefully navigate the flourishing garden of her consciousness, whispering symbols of transformation, guidance, and harmony with the universe. The positioning of purple florals at 11:11, a number deeply associated with synchronicity and universal alignment, suggests a moment of cosmic empowerment—an invitation to embrace destiny with unwavering confidence. Harrison’s signature Motusrealism technique, a unique blend of motion and realism, comes alive in the dynamic splashes of acrylic hues, evoking the raw emotion and ever-evolving nature of thought. Carefully positioned oil-painted highlights bring depth and intensity, ensuring this masterpiece captivates both from a distance and in intimate detail. This remarkable artwork is not just a painting—it is an immersive experience, designed to command presence in a grand setting. Originally unveiled as the feature artwork of the Noosa Solo Art Show 2024, The Garden Girl has garnered immense global attention, with its creation video amassing over 150 million views on social media.

Woman of Valor
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
The centerpiece of "Woman of Valor" is undoubtedly the woman's majestic afro hairstyle. In this artwork, the afro becomes a symbol of pride, cultural identity, and natural beauty. Historically associated with the Black community, the afro has been a powerful emblem of resistance, self-expression, and defiance against societal standards of beauty. By prominently featuring the afro, Edwin highlights the strength and resilience of women who embrace their heritage and challenge conventional norms. The woman's stern gaze in "Woman of Valor" captures the viewer's attention and evokes a sense of determination and self-assuredness. The intensity of her gaze serves as a reminder that strength does not always manifest through loud or overt actions. It can also be found in the quiet confidence and unwavering resolve of an individual who knows her worth and stands firm in her beliefs. Edwin skillfully portrays this inner strength, encouraging viewers to recognize and celebrate their own uniqueness. One of the most remarkable aspects of "Woman of Valor" is its celebration of individuality and authenticity. The woman depicted in the artwork stands as a testament to the power of embracing one's true self, regardless of societal expectations or pressures. By representing her with pride, Edwin inspires viewers to embrace their own identities and celebrate their personal journeys. The artwork encourages individuals to recognize the inherent strength and beauty that comes from being true to themselves. Edwin's attention to detail and mastery of his craft infuses "Woman of Valor" with emotional depth and resonance. The artist's use of color, light, and shadow adds depth and dimension to the woman's features, capturing her inner world and inviting viewers to connect with her on an emotional level. The artwork becomes a mirror that reflects the strength and determination within each viewer, inspiring them to embrace their own unique paths and stand tall in the face of adversity.
