Red Door
It has been said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. What then is the door that opens the human soul to the divine truths found on life’s journeys? Using this door as a metaphor, contemporary painter Henry Asencio has created a provocative painting infused with a narrative that embodies the chaos of unresolved ideals and the quest for one’s absolute truth. Red Door is a compelling composition that merges the mystery and seduction of complex abstraction with sensual figurative imagery. Vibrant, crimson color pervades his canvas as Asencio haunts and entices the viewers’ curiosity. Conspicuously scratched into the canvas is the word “Escalation” further hinting to the heightened quest for divine truth and the overcoming of negative forces. Adding to the intrigue, Asencio then seduces the eye to a narrow path of light on the edge of the canvas – as if a door has opened to reveal a raven-haired beauty bathed in the radiance of realization. Draped in crimson spilling over from the canvas and drawn toward the light of self-discovery, Asencio’s muse serves as the conduit in the search for enlightenment.
