2nd Collaboration - RHV

After the first collaborative artwork “Earth Spirit” was a major success, Roy Henry Vickers and I are pleased to create and release a new artwork.

” YIN YANG “

Artwork story
Yin and Yang is a concept that demonstrates how opposite energies can be complementary, two halves that together are whole.

In this 2nd collaborative artwork between Roy Henry Vickers and Lizzie Snow ‘fortyonehundred’, the two artists came together to create an artwork that demonstrates the power of yin and yang.

Each being carries qualities of both yin and yang within, one of which is usually slightly more dominant. When we learn to balance the energies within ourselves, we can find balance and peace in harmony.

This artwork, “Yin Yang”, illustrates contrasting symbology coming together as one. Feminine and masculine, the introverted and extroverted patterning and alternating rings of colour. Each of these elements are separate and, in a sense, opposing, unified together in one cohesive cyclical balance.

The rain-like graphics on the outer circle represent the infinite, as they continue beyond the artwork edge. Finding peace is a process, a journey that never ends. We never ‘arrive’, instead we continue to strive to seek balance and harmony within our lives.
