Eye: Bianca Groeneveld We've opened our eyes Oil on wood 20x20cm Story of Bianca: I See You 1/2 "As a child, I thought I wouldn't make it past 40, a secret thought that I shared only with myself… not so much about the fear of leaving the earth but more the fear of separation. All those years I carried that with me in silence, until it was almost my 40th birthday, and with that, enormous unrest in my body... from that moment on I was given a lot of "signs" as a direction indicator on my path, I can fill a book with it. I found out that I was actually born a day earlier, and I “survived” that magic number, which felt like a new beginning to me… in which I “knew” that I had something else to do here, and that I had to rely on it. I had to let go of a large part of my existing life. Not much later after I decided to follow my heart, an unexpected meeting followed, where I was allowed to experience through someone else's eyes the unprecedented depth of my own heart and soul, where we understood each other without words... where the energy like a sun from my heart flowed into and through my hands and found a way out. With the words “what you feel and experience you will give to the people around you” I said goodbye and for me, the greatest form of missing became a mission… I may experience in my own process that the feeling of being separate is just an illusion I create when I allow fear to set in… The moment I close my eyes and go back to my heart I connect with my soul and I remember the reality that we are connected to each other, to everything and everyone. My eyes, the emptier they are… the more they see.
