Passing Beyond

Wire, wood, sticks, cotton cloth, acrylic paint, a transparent glass buddha figurine.

This piece is about freedom from the limiting mental habits that entrap our minds. It is inspired by a verse in the Dhammapada, sayings of the Buddha:

'House-builder you have now been seen. You will not build a house again...'

A lifelong student of Buddhism, I dabble in poetry, painting and photography and appreciate all forms of art.
