Story / Additional InfoFrom the Red Line Series, this painting is divided by a red line diagonally that separates the journey side from the present and also serves as an oar for the boat . There is a feeling of captured spirituality and the journey could be a life journey or a death one. The figure in the boat references mythological stories of boats referred to as the vehicle of death or a life change. The three figures are all women and the central figure with the dark face could be a spiritual guide, a goddess or a mysterious seer.
