This piece explores the profound depths of love, capturing two contrasting facets of the lover's soul. One side manifests as an ecstatic, almost divine dance—an expression of surrender to an infinite beloved, reminiscent of the Sufi whirling, where the lover’s entire being is absorbed into the presence of the unattainable. The dance is sacred, a testament to the overwhelming passion that transcends the self.
