International postage stamps issued from countries from every continent of the world (excluding Antarctica) are represented in this piece. The piece is meticulously crafted from thousands of genuine international postage stamps, spanning decades from the 1940s to the early 2000s. "Insight" is a contemporary reinterpretation of the mandala, or contemplative energy field, symbolizing a space of meditation and energy through my geometric "X" or “Vortex” design. This inspiration is rooted in a homage to Frank Stella's series of paintings from the 1950s, reimagining their essence within a modern context. These international stamps, having navigated myriad paths and connections, contribute to a sense of meditative tranquility and calmness through the ever-changing hues and color relationships.
