Comment

In the foreground, the artist depicted a lotus flower formation found in temples. The sphere in the upper half of the painting depicts Foucault's pendulum, a device used to observe the rotation of the earth, and is combined with the lotus flower sculpture. In the background, I depicted people dressed up dancing, playing music, and talking to each other. In a world of diverse religions and ideas, the work festively expresses the desire for harmony.
