Description :
Striking and contemplative original artwork by Richard Kirsten, also known by his Zen name Daiensai. This symbolic composition presents a stylized human figure in profile, partially overlaid by a dark mask that appears to separate and fall away, revealing an inner self illuminated by a descending rainbow. Geometric planes and textured surfaces create a layered visual language that reflects themes of spiritual awakening, transformation, and the dissolution of illusion. Executed in vinyl acrylic on wood, the work carries a distinctive matte texture and meditative stillness characteristic of Kirsten’s Zen-influenced practice. The reverse of the piece includes original handwritten notes, gallery documentation from Kirsten Gallery (Seattle), and a gallery label noting an original price of $2,500—strong provenance supporting authenticity.
