watercolour and ink
297mm x 420mm, 2017
Created in July 2017, The Phase of Time is a watercolour and ink artwork created by Zyra Bañez for the Expressions Collection.
This collection features a curated gallery of artworks by Zyra under the theme of self expression and emotions. Like a diary, the Expressions Collection is a documentation of the inner most thoughts and secrets best said through art.
The Phase of Time is the seventh instalment to the collection as the only self-portrait, exploring the idea of time and growth in relation to the moon and tide.
This artwork was created as a submission for the Banyule Award for Works on Paper based on the theme of ebb and flow.
Inspired by a simple venn diagram, The Phase of Time came to life, where the past and the future converge to create the present.
