2024 / JANUARY

 
 

Sit and meditate in one’s ‘imaginary’ clouds
Dream, muster up and awaken the ‘superpower’ energy

 

Ready to go
Transform the energy

 

Soar above the surf

Walk on water

Ride the waves

 

And jump high in the air to reach the ‘real’ clouds in the sky

 

2024 New Year message: TRANSFORMATION

Find your own positive SUPERPOWER
Rise high in the sky
And touch the clouds

with love

‘The cloud… will never die… Nothing is created, nothing is destroyed, everything is in transformation.’
- Thich Nhat Hanh (1926 - 2022) Vietnamese Buddhist monk and peace activist

and others…

‘Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another.’
- Albert Einstein (1879-1955) German theoretical physicist

‘Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed.’  
- Antoine Lavoisier (1743 - 1794) French chemist

‘This vast universe is a wheel, the wheel of Brahman. Upon it are all creatures that are subject to birth, death, and rebirth. Round and round it turns and never stops.’
- Svetasvatara Upanishad 1.6-8 (5th to 4th century BCE)

Saṃsāra: wandering / running around in circles / the cyclic change of all life, matter, and existence (energy cannot be destroyed or diminished, it is simply transmuted)


2023 / DECEMBER

@ 57 Ocean - Miami Beach, FL, USA

A last-minute, surprise pop-up show!

It is always good to see old artwork again and even get to transform some pieces, and when you show them alongside new pieces, you reinforce the connecting threads to the one message you always intend to convey, which ultimately, for me, is the reason for making art in the first place.

A big thank you to everyone who helped whilst @ 57 Ocean

 

Show blurb:

‘The purpose of life is to obey the hidden command which ensures harmony among all and creates an ever better world. We are not created only to enjoy the world, we are created in order to evolve the cosmos.’ Maria Montessori (1870 - 1952)

WE / LOVE : moving forward

Fiona is a sustainable artist, fashion designer and yogini living and working in Miami Beach.

This collection uses recycled paper and found or existing objects and reflects on the Buddhist (and mathematical) concept of fitting the square (earthbound / physical / human condition) into the circle (eternal whole / spiritual / sacred) — squaring the circle.

The collection suggests that true global interconnectedness can be achieved — through total respect and acceptance of each other and complete respect for our planet (and beyond), showing that we can change and, indeed, we can move forward in our collective consciousness towards unity.

With Love,
Enjoy!
