Working Peacefully...

I’ve just finished up a commission inspired by the Tibetan prayer flags for an exterior planter at a private residence. A lovely project. These flags are very colorful and traditionally strung along trails and peaks in the Himalayas. They are meant to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom. Tibetans believe that prayers and mantras will be blown by the wind to spread good will and compassion into the air for all to receive.

On one side, I wanted to show where they are traditionally displayed. On the other side, I wanted to fuse some fun and good energy into the flags I created, and so designed a close up of the flags with bits of interesting repurposed ceramic and glass. Installation coming soon!
