Way Up To Chonsanju

In this painting, a blazing-sailed vessel cuts through the turquoise horizon, a fragile craft braving the winds and currents of life. The sea, vast and shifting, symbolizes existence with its joys, trials, and unpredictability. In the distance, the unseen yet sensed presence of Chonsanju’s celestial mountains emerges, cold and perilous lands where the soul nonetheless finds purification. Each stroke of red and orange embodies effort, perseverance, and the courage of one who, despite flaws and mistakes, presses forward. This metaphorical canvas reminds us that nothing is ever granted: it is through constant striving, through overcoming obstacles, that the path to elevation is traced. What inner mountain is each of us trying to climb?
