There are two conversations happening in Inner Gold and they have always been the same conversation. The first is visual, which is gold foil catching and releasing light across a cobalt Buddha, raw brushstrokes of white and amber breaking open around a face of absolute stillness. The second is the idea the title carries quietly that enlightenment is not found outside but uncovered within. The gold doesn't arrive from somewhere else. It was always part of the canvas. It simply needed a hand willing to reveal it.
