Soul Reflector
From Djerassi Residency, July 04
Various Woods
18' x 18'

Soul Reflector seeks audience to reconnect to the nature and to refresh of their minds. It was site specific installation where each view from certain direction has significant symbolism. Audience was asked to do walking mediation, and then perform self purification ceremony. All materials were natural materials founded from the location. Participants were asking to bow 4 directions which symbolize to show the respect and be thankful to themselves in past, present, future, and to other who helped them. At the end, they sprinkle the mixture of milk and honey drops which are symbol of body and soul to each direction and for themselves. This part symbolizes the self-purification. People who participated on this piece commonly describe that they felt warm and light after following the instruction.
