Three Times One, Zen #05

Silence is not an absence—it is a presence complete within itself. Zen explores this silence and inward reflection through abstract forms; balance, cycles, and the infinity contained within the present moment. In Zen philosophy, nothing is excessive and nothing is lacking—each form is exactly as much as it needs to be. Emptiness is not a loss, but a space; balance is not a destination, but a state; and the present moment is where past and future quietly meet. Each piece does not ask a question or make a statement—it simply stands and allows. Carrying the profound simplicity at the heart of Zen philosophy, Zen is a limited-edition sculpture series by The Clique Artworks.

Past, present, and future—in Zen philosophy, these three are in fact a single moment. Three Times One embodies this idea through three distinct forms layered together to create one whole. Each layer is complete in itself; yet when they come together, time itself becomes visible.
