Description

Inspiration

• This concept was inspired by the ancient Dharmachakra or Dharma Wheel… The eight-spoked wheel depicted at the center of this piece. These spokes represent the “Noble Eightfold Path,” or the eight practices thought to lead humanity to liberation from Samsara (the cycle of rebirth). The endless knots, borders, and eyes are there to represent protection through your journey. The endless knot is constructed from something representing matter, and inside of the knot represents the space between, symbolic of the spirit. Together, this demonstrates the co-dependence of wisdom and compassion.
