In this drawing, Lulu holds a “mantis” pose, steady, focused, and grounded. Her stillness stands out against the blurred masts of the sailboats behind her, suggesting calm in a shifting world. Inspired by Wassily Kandinsky’s interest in form and symmetry, Edward uses the geometry of her stance to show a quiet inner strength. The piece avoids dramatic gestures, instead highlighting slow, intentional change. It becomes a reflection on staying centred, reminding us that meaningful transformation often begins in silence.
