KUTHO Series: Pagan Wall
KUTHO takes inspiration from a Burmese concept of merit. A common ritual undertaken by Burmese Buddhists is to cover their relics with gold leaves. Leaving a gold-mark is exclusive to male devotees for merit-making towards better karma. Women, in the guise of an impure status, are forbidden to approach. Gold and Religion have an ancient relationship. The series talks about Power associated with Religion and the relationship between the visible / not visible, cult/occult, and parallels universes.
I'm interested in how an offering affirms the idea of the next life and empowers us by being used as a tool for that purpose. The liberation of the soul is also a work in progress.
