Laundry | Bea Aspiras
“Laundry” is an exploration of the profound symbolism hidden within the everyday act of cleansing. The paintings serve as windows into moments of reflection, a celebration of resilience, of shedding the weight of yesterday’s burdens to welcome the promise of tomorrow.
Just as laundry is an age-old ritual, so too is the journey of renewal and purification it represents.
As you wander through the exhibit, you’ll find the artworks arranged in a deliberate manner, mirroring the delicate dance of clothes swaying in the breeze, suspended between earth and sky. Here, laundry transcends its practical purpose.
Bea Aspiras collected materials for the artworks while traveling, such as handmade recycled paper and traditional Chinese pigments from Taiwan, oil paints from Vancouver, Canada, and acrylics from Silpakorn University of Fine Arts in Thailand.
Each stroke of paint and layer of pigment echoes the rhythm of washing away the past, a gentle reminder that, like freshly laundered linens, we too have the capacity to emerge from the wash revitalized and ready to embark on a new chapter.
