Mercaba is a Prostheitc Sculpture that encourages the viewer to feel and interact with art. In traditional mandala arts the creator and the viewer go through personal transformations as they contemplate their place in the universe. In the Stillness of the moment they meditate on their oneness with all of existence by just being with it. Mercaba invites the viewer to explore themselves in the same way as they weave their body through the strings. Maybe you explore weaving only your arm. Maybe you explore weaving all of your body. It doesn’t matter how much of your body interacts with the piece, but that the viewer pays attention to how they feel as they allow themselves to feel connected. Explore with your eyes, but the gift is best received through the joy of tactile experience. Mercaba is a fun and intimate piece that holds space for us to pay attention to our inner and tactile feelings.
