An Apuchita is a mound of stones placed in either in the shape of an anthropomorphic portal or a conical/pyramidal shape as an offering made by the indigenous peoples of the Andes to the Pachamama (Earth Mother), the Apus (gods of the mountains) or local deities of the place. Built on the slopes of difficult roads and maintained by travelers, it is at these points where pilgrims ask for and thank the deities. If the Apuchita has a portal, some will gaze through in expectation of seeing the spirits. My journeys to Peru to work with indigenous Elders introduced me to the tradition and to the Apu Huascaran and to the Apu Kuntur of the Jananpacha.

“I create convergent media art that celebrates the values of rural life and of the land itself, that fosters a sense of self-empowerment, self-love, self-representation, community, and the strengths of traditional cultures. My work explores the relationship between both high and low technology cultures, ethnic and class identities, shamanic tourism, and an expanding sense of the natural and supernatural worlds. As a verbal and visual storyteller, I strive to commit my rich and varied life experiences to canvas and paper, sharing the ceremonial life of indigenous communities in both normal and visionary time, and exploring concepts of strength and vulnerability through treatments of my royal, noble, and humble ancestors. What starts out as contemplation becomes, I hope, a portal for the viewer to briefly enter another reality, leaving only a sense of a picture album of the road not taken and a eulogy for the self-imposed limits of our existence.” Books "ESCAPE From the Darkroom! - Old-School Principles Applied to Modern Digital Photography" [2013] https://amazon.com/dp/1484840011/ “GeoHypnotics: A Gentle Way to Access Deeper Consciousness” [2016] Four volumes https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530632501/ ; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530640121/; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530644690/ ; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530786126/ https://amazon.com/author/brianwilkes
