Primordial Egg, 1979
Primordial Egg 197948″ x 72″

"Primordial Egg" is an evocative piece that delves into the mysteries of our universe's origin. Inspired by the concept of the singularity—a point of infinite density from which the universe is thought to have expanded—Beas paints an abstract representation of this primeval event. The canvas acts as a spatial-temporal plane, capturing the singularity's rapid transformation into a thriving cosmos, a process evoking the image of a cosmic egg hatching into existence. By applying a distinctive blend of oil, acrylic, watercolor, and an array of solvents and diluents, Beas crafts a narrative of existence that echoes the Big Bang theory, portraying the universe's birth and expansion from a singular point. Encased in a robust maple frame, "Primordial Egg" presents a thrilling, thought-provoking journey back to the very beginnings of time and space.
