The Sommer Solas Seed Series emerged as a way of honoring the lightness I associate with my experience of summer. Solas means light in the Gaelic language. There is an appreciation that the summer months provide seeds that get scattered through the rest of the year as little reminders of the lightness of being, growth and freedom felt in the long summer days and evenings.
To me creating this piece brings me into yet another layer consciousness that questions a neglected aspect of my relationship to nature. Do I tilt and turn as sunflowers do towards the light and align in my own lightness of being with nature? Or do I chose to stay stuck in my own blindness in a quest that nature bends to my will instead? Can I even be authentic when I do this? If not, how can I truly find authenticity in my being if I am not aligning with nature in all aspects of its life source?
I invite you to become part of the unfolding consciousness experience and email me about your insights/thoughts/ideas about what this artwork invokes for you.
