healing is a flash exhibition that celebrates the beginning of a new year as a time to move on. these works have been made in one way or another to heal those who participate. the anonymously made tantra paintings picture core concepts that when embodied resonate to expand significance and consciousness. these are traditional or historical images perennially recreated by practitioners of tantra for teaching purposes. daniel feinberg’s kicking the habit resulted in a buddha head made of his chewed nicotine polacrilex gum. “bodhisattvas dwelling in inconceivable liberation, over-the-counter, perfect enlightenment... thus, recognizing in his own suffering the infinite sufferings of these living beings... going ‘cold turkey,’ means relying solely on your willpower to quit. willpower is essential - you have to really want it...by helping stop cravings before they start, nicorette increases your chance of success by allowing you to focus your willpower on changing your behavior.” healer sue gurnee also creates resonance paintings that examine and radiate the secret operations of nature. “originally, art of this nature was used by shamans to evoke conservation, assimilation, transmutation and maintenance of vibrations.” one stands directly in front of these paintings, feet planted on the ground, relaxed shoulders, “and instead of bringing your energy and artistic sensibilities to each canvas, let the image’s vibrations contact you.” > read more |
