​​​Art Work - Gaia/Earthly - Joy

"Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it everyday" - Henri Nouwen

Enchanted Poppy Garden represents the beautiful fragrant primary colours of poppies during the early phase of the morning, shortly after the sun has risen, while the air is still perfectly fresh. Amidst this beautiful phase of nature, misty droplets of water fall like a river into the earthly ground, rendering the colours of the poppies even brighter and shinier. The bright red colour sends out a very positive, happy and joyous feeling lifting up the spirit. The field of poppies, if looked from above offers a scene of wonderment, even if just for a few moments. Through this, the observer loses him or herself in a moment of pure joy and uplift, preparing the body, mind and soul to face yet another daily load of stress and hardships to come.

Dagmar Popp views Laundry Day as a joyous moment of cleaning and cleansing, both inside and outside (which can be interpreted from an actual task performed or from an inside perspective regarding the body, spirit and soul). The vivid red colours represent the energy forces required for such a task, which is in reality much harder than one can imagine. The yellowish colours on the other hand represent the satisfaction felt within in accomplishing the required tasks. Embedded within Laundry Day are various symbols associated with increasing the vital energies required to cleanse the spirit; harmony and stillness becomes the result of this process, which can be seen through bowls and cups of flowers and fruits - projecting freshness.

Through Fountain of Joy, Dagmar Popp is exploring her own inner feelings and emotions with the goal to pass this on to other life forms living on planet earth. There is an un-blackened darkness laying in the background of one's inner-self (emotionally speaking) represented by insecurity, uncertainty, fear and anger, yet all of these negative feelings and emotions are lightened up during explosive moments of joy, happiness, positivity and love. The fountain of joy is available to all life forms, at all times, which can be felt and manifested by listening to soothing music, meditation or by pure and simple contemplation. This allows for the spirit to re-create itself and reset its own rhythm through joyful and wishful thinking.

The Dance of the Dragon is themed on its mystical and mythical being, a dragon, portrayed in this painting through vividly enchanting and vibrant colours. Dragons have been fascinating human kind for ages and they remind us of the endless and hidden powers surrounding us on a daily basis. In The Dance of the Dragon, Dagmar Popp chose to imagine one dancing happily and joyfully through the vast beauties of mother nature, flying high above the grounds, mountains, lakes, rivers and oceans of planet earth. Through this dance, the dragon releases burning flames that is transformed into emotions and feelings of love and joy. The question that need to be asked if whether the dragon inside of us is ready and to release such bursting flames of joy and love.

Dagmar Popp got inspired to produce Hibiscus as a tribute to a very close friend of hers in Mauritius who gifted her with a Hibiscus bouquet. Hibiscus portrays an abundance of green foliage, a profusion of eye-catching flowers. In real life, an added pleasure of the hibiscus' biological anatomy is that it tends to peak when the rest of a garden is getting past its best. This painting portrays joy through its various combination of flowers and the fact that it was given as a deep heart-felted gift. On top of that, the grey symbol laying towards the bottom right of the painting represents the Birth of Light. If we think about it, joy always happens through the birth of light, coming through loving and compassionate feelings and emotions.

LSD - Light Sound Division explains that all and everything in the universe is inter-connected, intermingled and tied together in this dance (or what some call this game) of life. The elements of natural life being water, air, earth, wood and more vibrate together to form what we humans perceive as reality, yet nothing around us really exists, but rather all is conceived and constructed by each mind differently. Once the state of mind is altered in some way, shape or form, different realities naturally occur to the perceiver. Colours might represent sounds or vice versa sounds might represent colours. This incredible form of energy we call the mind divides various elements continuously and tries to restore order within this chaos we call life.

One day, as Dagmar Popp was walking in her little piece of paradise she calls her garden, she was profoundly touched and infiltrated with beams of sunshine bathing her surroundings into soft light, piercing through various trees, plants and natural elements, also reflecting on the little water stream nearby. The gentle yet inarguably energetic and powerful sound of leaves being shaken by the wind paired with various chants echoed by birds swirling around transversed into musical notes that just manifested themselves out of nowhere, creating a magical moment of bliss. The sweet natural odours and smells emitted by all the natural elements around her gave rise to even more joy to this moment of pure ecstasy. This is Music of Sphere.
