The etymology of the words 'adamant' and 'diamond' descend from the Ancient Greek word 'adamas' and literally means the unconquerable or the invincible.
Fittingly, the artists named this latest limited edition: ‘Adamas.’
Craig Alan pays tribute here to the human love of aesthetics and beauty as this crowd of mini people are painted gathering around this beautiful pink diamond.
The off-white background is cleverly imbued with faint swirls of the paint brush, blending perfectly with the multiple colours of the clothes the mini people wear.
Alan could easily use this image to join the counter-culture and focus on the West's aspirations for money and wealth but instead he chooses to celebrate the beauty all around us:...
...in our human diversity, in art and those of more precious objects.
The human spirit, like this diamond, is robust, beautiful and indomitable.
