SATTY VERBART
UK / HOLLAND
Satty is an artist and yoga teacher. Meditation informs her art work, it is the gateway to catch ideas and encounter deeper levels of meaning to what this life is. Featuring the question ‘What is this?’ is a gateway to hidden depths, sometimes into dark corners, sometimes venturing into the brilliantly bright and lucid. Buddhist philosophy and philosophy in general inspires Satty to question and explore the meaning of life. Poetry does the same.
The artworks form a cosmic theme, transcending the confines of our minds to expand into outer space. ‘When I fall deep into meditation I feel that I am transcending down into the back of my brain.’ A moment when the breath is suspended and we catch the cosmos and its immutable silence. At times the stillness becomes an Alice in Wonderland experience that opens up portals to the mystery of consciousness.
