Description

Element Earth and Water – Original Painting by Yao Mikami
Oil and acrylic on canvas, 80 × 70 cm

“Element Earth and Water” invites viewers into the alchemical dialogue between two primal forces: Earth and Water. Drawing inspiration from Celtic alchemy and Tarot symbolism, Yao Mikami explores the way these elements speak to the natural world and to our inner life.

Earth, solid and grounding, represents logic, stability, and manifestation. In Celtic lore, the land itself is alive, holding ancestral memory, protection, and fertility. Tarot’s suit of Pentacles echoes this elemental strength, guiding practical action, endurance, and harmony with the material world.

Water, flowing and ever-changing, embodies emotion, intuition, and connection. In Celtic tradition, water is sacred—rivers and wells are portals to wisdom, transformation, and the unconscious. In Tarot, the suit of Cups reflects emotional depth, empathy, and the currents of our inner world.

Through the fusion of these energies, Yao Mikami captures the dialogue between flow and form, emotion and logic, movement and stillness. The composition celebrates the balance of opposites, showing how elements guide, transform, and empower us.

Rendered in oil and acrylic on canvas, each brushstroke evokes the tactile richness of Earth and the fluidity of Water, creating a meditation on elemental energy, symbolism, and the natural cycles that shape our lives.
