Groundings is a series of ruminations on ten virtues as outlined by the Buddhist paramis. Through layers of oil paint, I explore different nuances embed in these virtues, as well as struggles and resistances to them. I delve into them from an interior perspective, from a contemporary nonreligious angle.
