In the painting “Reflection”, Senay Ramada speaks about the inner light of the human being — the light that may seem extinguished on the outside, yet continues to burn deep within.
The solitary candle stands still, as if without a flame, quiet and withdrawn from the world. But in the water beneath it, its reflection appears — bright, alive, and glowing. This reflection reveals a hidden truth: the light has not disappeared; it simply does not show itself on the surface.
Around it are other candles — some extinguished, others still burning. They remind us of the people and moments in our lives: some we have lost, some still warm us, and others remind us of how fragile a flame can be. Each carries its own light, but not everyone reveals it in the same way.
The water in the painting is a space of truth and self-reflection. Where there is no pretense, the light reveals itself in its purest form. It is within the reflection that one can see who they truly are — not as they appear outwardly, but as they are felt within.
“Reflection” is a painting about silence, about a solitude that is not empty, and about hope that does not fade. It reminds us that even when we feel extinguished, our light still exists — reflected in the depths of the soul.
