The title for this painting is inspired by Rumi’s poem:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“If you stay awake
for an entire night
watch out for a treasure
trying to arrive ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can keep warm
by the secret sun of the night
keeping your eyes open
for the softness of dawn
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Try it for tonight
challenge your sleepy eyes
do not lay your head down
wait for heavenly alms...” .
