The Freedom in Destruction

stop motion video, chalk pastel on paper,

2020.

Inspired by the creation and destruction of sand mandalas in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. This is a visual and auditory exploration and practice of non attachment. I translated the visual movement and imagery into a piano soundtrack to create an audio visual meditative experience. I hope that the viewer and listener will slow down their breathing sit comfortably and be present without thought or judgement and lay witness to the continuous cycles of creation and destruction that we are all apart of in this shared experience of a human lifetime.
