I am an artist, I paint, and I want to express the idea of many things arriving down into one thing or an existance, and than that one thing or existance traveling back into many things again, after death.
Is there an object/thing (living or non-living) than can symbolically help express this idea and concept?

I thought of a dandelion, one flower in bloom and one at the fluffy white stage with seeds being picked up by the wind.

I am not sure I am actually on the same page with you, but will comment because what I inferred from your question made something pop into my thoughts. It is probably far more technical and theoretical than you want, but here goes a feeble explanation: The cosmological theory of the black hole says that anything in its gravitational grasp will be pulled into its sub-atomic monolithic center and become one with it. That minute but astronomically heavy entity is termed by cosmologists a SINGULARITY. Now,by mathematical theorists it has further been suggested that the result may not have to be annihilation of the thing captured (It could be anything-simple or complex/multi-faceted) but through some inexplicable (to me) quality of space such as a "worm hole," it could survive as itself, perhaps in another time or place in the cosmos. All that to say that there are already some artistic renderings of what a black hole might look like to an approaching object. If this metaphorical notion is not utterly uninteresting you can search on black hole and find some graphic directions to start with. This could be something to spark at least an abstract treatment in an artistic medium. Apologies for the wordy response.

As an artist myself, I like many others, meditate first before painting or drawing anything. I suggest you try doing the same. Just close your eyes and focus on finding your center. Ask youself one question. That question should inspire a concept. The answer will come clear after a short while, in the form of a picture.

When I think of things coming down I think of rain or a thunderstorm. While a storm may seem destructive, I actually believe that they are symbols of our collective vibrations being transferred into the ultimate creativity or a new beginning.
That's my impression.
Good luck!

Paint a tree. Really, paint a tree.
