Mentari Pagi 5. 20cm (diameter). Industrial Paint and Acrylic on Canvas. 2019.
Mentari Pagi (in Malay) or sunrise/morning sun.
Daybreak is a world we rarely glimpse, but is worth the effort. I myself put through "sunrise therapy" and here is the write upon the benefits—all there for the taking. All you have to do is wake up in time. There are no guarantees that watching the sunrise will take away your seasonal sadness. The sun doesn’t have an ad budget or marketing campaign to make promises. However, sunlight is free and extremely reliable: Every day, it rises without fail, and its light brings a lot of impressive benefits. Speaking from personal experience, I can tell you that the morning sun worked wonders on my mood. This happened when I wake up from early in the morning and I took some photos and did some quick live sketch while the sun is rising up. In the past, I rarely saw sunrise. Maybe on a random trip during an early hike, or at the beach when I needed a quiet moment in nature. These intermittent sunrise experiences awoke something dormant in me—a lightness, a hope, a reminder to breathe, all of which seemed to lead to a better day and a sounder night’s sleep. .
