A work of the world in gold and blue by Arjen Roos

In "Symbolism Around the World," I have attempted to create a piece that will appeal to many. The subject is ourselves. The human being, our culture, our emotion, our world. A work of the world.
All symbols are made in gold on a blue textured background, incorporating a depth effect.

The Hero's Journey: This narrative structure has been used throughout history in countless stories. It follows a hero who embarks on a journey, faces challenges, and ultimately triumphs over adversity.

The Labyrinth: This symbol represents a journey or quest and is often used to depict the search for one's own identity or purpose.

Four-Leaf Clover: This is often associated with luck and prosperity. It is linked to finding a fortunate opportunity or experiencing luck in life.

Globe with a Rainbow in the background: This is often used to represent diversity and inclusion. A global community working together to create a better future for everyone, regardless of race, sexuality, gender identity, or religion. The rainbow represents the many different colors and identities that exist on the planet, while the globe expresses the idea of our global interconnectedness.

The Four Elements: Earth, air, fire, and water are often used as symbols of balance and harmony in nature.

Yin Yang: This symbol represents the balance between opposing forces, such as light and dark, masculine and feminine, or good and evil.

Tree of Life: This symbol has been used throughout history in many cultures and religions. It represents growth, connection, and the cycle of life.

Paintbrush: This symbol is often used to represent art and creativity. It embodies the idea of creating something new and unique through expression and imagination. It not only symbolizes traditional art forms such as painting but can also be associated with other forms of creative expression such as writing, sculpting, making music, and dancing.

Heart: This represents love, affection, and emotion. It is often used to express romantic love but can also be associated with other forms of love, such as friendship or family bonds.
