In this awesome collage Beloslava Dyankova reveals her talent of a discoverer of the subtle beauty in nature. Here, the nature is genuine and whole. The spring vital colours complete each other and they are in a total harmony with the bird that is an original accent in the central part of the composition. The wavering shapes of the tree and grass shapes are а witty idea. They are depicted solid and ornate, conveying a sense of wholeness and completeness. Spring in the collage is not a random choice. It is both a message and a harbinger. Haiku triplet depicts movement from something specific to something infinite. Its structure is opposite of what has been expected: first we hear the action (whisper) then we realise who is speaking (universe) and eventually we realise what by (the wind). "The voice of the universe" is a metaphor - the universe is usually mute in our imagination. Here it is given a quiet voice and is thus humanized and brought closer to us. Spring is the season of awakening, of new beginnings, and it is precisely then that the universe chooses to speak.
