Book of Hours
This is a collection of mixed media drawings on paper, all part of a project I have named "The Book of Hours". Inspired by the medieval books containing images and texts aimed to help people transcend their sufferings through prayer and meditation on those images and texts, I create a body of a contemporary, transcultural Book, sourcing inspiration from Byzantine art, eastern mandalas and yantras, the Egyptian Book of the Dead and numerous other traditions where images were used to invoke good fortune, prosperity or communion with higher states of existence.
