Circumambulations
Working with the form of the ubiquitous basketball allows me to meditate on the object's symbolic meaning. As I circumambulate each ball, bead by bead, panel by panel, the swooping lines blur in their meaning. Are they abstract divisions or irrefutable interconnections, fault lines or golden pathways? Through my own creative ritual, a slow moving alchemy takes place. The micro meets the macro and a playful object becomes a sacred artifact of contemplation.
This is an invitation to play with a shifting of orientations and perspectives. What barriers are blocking us from awakening to our personal and collective power? What practices might help us to access the timeless power of all creation, the kind that can uphold the cosmos and every cell in our bodies at the same time?
