    oneness of being: winter
    (2022) Hashemi, Gita
    Part 4 of a tetralogy, this short video is a moving meditation on the beauty of the natural forms. It foregrounds the playful and changing harmony of seasonal light and the mesmerizing colours it creates. The imagery is punctuated with selected verses from Rumi that encourage contemplation and the feeling of interconnectedness. Each part is based on a season. Creating abstraction from nature, each short video captures colours, shapes and movements to convey the dominant feelings of the season. Moving from dawn to dusk, the sequencing is entirely driven by changes in the intensity and colour of light over the day’s course. The selected poems emphasize the interconnection of all beings and all seasons. They articulate the essence of life as the eternal cycles of light and shadow, and suggest that their reflection in our internal landscape animates our experience of the outer world.
