Description
Vibrant and thought-provoking, Mantra Art harnesses the power of an innovative art form to encourage a personal inner journey towards understanding one’s own divine nature.
Each meditative painting is imbued with thousands of miniscule, handwritten mantra inspired by the Sikh concept of Oneness – a universal approach to life that is mindful of the Divine presence in everything and everyone, and thus recognises all people as equal.
Accompanying the images are insights from the artist illuminating how each artwork was instrumental in aiding her own personal and powerful experiences of joy, exuberance, peace and self-healing.
