Series: World's Lost Enchantment

“World’s Lost Enchantment” body of work is all about the beautiful things: connection, love, nature, body and mind, and life essentially. However, all it’s meaning is hidden behind symbols created by the artist to express her feelings. 

Most of the viewers may simply enjoy seeing colorful butterflies, intruding looking monkeys or swimming polar bears but for those more interested in a story behind the creation of this series is a lot to discover. 


MONKEY

God of magicians and the transformations of alchemy.

Monkey as a human mind.

The Buddha more than 2,500 years ago was teaching people about the human mind so that they might understand themselves better and discover that there was a way out of suffering. Buddha described the human mind as being filled with drunken monkeys, jumping around, screeching, chattering, carrying on endlessly. We all have monkey minds, Buddha said, with dozens of monkeys all clamoring for attention. Fear is an especially loud monkey, sounding the alarm incessantly, pointing out all the things we should be wary of and everything that could go wrong. Buddha said, if you will spend some time each day in quiet meditation — simply calm your mind by focusing on your breathing or a simple mantra — you can, over time, tame the monkeys. They will grow more peaceful if you lovingly bring them into submission with a consistent practice of meditation.

The monkey’s gift is the ability to find unconventional solutions to old problems.
