Key value factors: For living or recently deceased artists, limited edition size and gallery representation drive value. Signed and numbered prints from smaller editions are most desirable.
A dive composition by Mayumi Oda — the physical act of diving into water as a metaphor for spiritual practice, for the willingness to leave the familiar surface of ordinary experience and plunge into the depths where different conditions prevail. The diver commits fully to the water's medium, exchanging the light and air of the surface for the pressurized, aquatic world beneath. In Oda's Buddhist iconography, this commitment to immersion parallels the practitioner's commitment to meditation: the willingness to go beneath the surface of thought and perception to discover what exists at greater depth. The XXX edition format suggests an open edition, printed as demand required.
Dive (20/XXX) was created by Mayumi Oda (小田真由美).
Dive (20/XXX) depicts figures, religious, and seascapes.
