Shiva Linga - Limited Edition 1 of 1 Print

(English) Work is a result of my research of androgynous phenomena through tantric spirituality and philosophy where woman and man represent archetypal complementary opposites which, merged together, create what alchemists call ‘Philosopher's stone’, state of perfectly balanced man who has awaken qualities of both gender inside himself and transcended them. Symbolism of the kiss wears different robe and carries different meanings throughout history, from betrayal, friendly one, until the one that rises one from death. I decided to show a kiss of lovers, can be the one between a man and a woman, but can also be a kiss inside a being, which tries to annul opposites and brings blissful and meditative state where the one involved rises above polarity, above duality with deep longing for the very essence of being. (Bosnian) Rad je nastao kao rezultat istraživanja fenomena androgina kroz tantričku duhovnost i filozofiju gdje su žena i muškarac predstavnici arhetipskih komplementarnih suprotnosti koje, sjedinjujući se, stvaraju ono što alhemičari zovu ‘kamenom mudraca’, tj. savršeno stanje potpuno uravnoteženog čovjeka koji je u sebi probudio kvalitete oba pola i ujedno ih transcendirao. Simbolizam poljupca odjeva različito ruho i nosi mnogobrojna značenja kroz historiju, od izdajničkog, prijateljskog, do onog koji podiže iz smrti. Ja sam se odlučila za poljubac ljubavnika, bilo da se radi o muškarcu i ženi, bilo da se radi o duhovnom poljupcu koji se dešava unutar bića, koji poništava oprečnosti i donosi stanje blaženo i meditativno gdje se jedinka uzdiže iznad polarnosti, iznad dualnosti ne bi li zahvatila duboko u samu suštinu čistog postojanja.
