The Mind in Diagrams

21/6/2020

The diagrams below show how meditation changes the relationship between the mind, the body and the world. The development of calm (blue) and insight (yellow) is like a gradual centring of the mind first of all forming clear perceptions (mental images) of the world, secondly stepping back into the body.
​
The diagrams are also an introduction to my other artwork where the relationship between calm and insight is portrayed in a more fluid, creative way.

This video then shows elements from the diagrams merging with poetry and becoming more playful and artistic.
