PATHS AND PATTERNS
EMBODIMENT OF THE TRAVELER IN THE CONTINUUM PARADOX
The Slippery notion of predestination, fate and destiny has generated a lot of discourse based on belief and disbelief alike. While I am undecided which side I fall, I explore the most important element to the concept/discourse of destiny.
THE FEET…
The feet (chakras) chakras derived from the Sanskrit word meaning wheel. The feet is the bodily locomotive force that takes us through different paths. They retain the memory of our trails in colour, texture, wrinkle, bruises and scars.
PROCESS & VISUAL OUTPUT
I consciously began to keenly observe the feet of people I meet and share experiences with…so much amazement to perceive and to also see what our bodies communicate without our knowledge. Conversations, thoughts engaged and visual projections I had at those times ; this experiences put together was used in visually recreating what I perceived in the process.
