The fox, coy and brazen, approached the light golden star to find behind her eyes the purest conception of the moon. The draw of mystery is a mirror clothed in inky iridescence. Pyritized bones are backed by the perception heightening wonder of primordial mass. The desire to discover, the longing to listen, to reflect, to ask better questions, to channel the wisdom of unknowing, this is a sacred space. To belong in such a sanctuary we make ourselves ready and worthy, to feel at home in this liminal state is as simple and difficult as jumping into a waterfall. It is best to first strip, sincere in vulnerability, and then we simply commit. The cold isn’t so impalpable after all, but we still must abandon our reason to make the leap. The otherworldliness was only the view from the previous world. Now it’s just a richer and deeper world.

 

Infinite Seed is a group exhibition presenting artworks that explore collective healing through synergetic interaction of the material world and the living biosphere. Symbolically taking place on the grounds of Bhumi Farms, a not-for-profit organization whose mission it is to deliver organic produce to communities with the greatest need and least access. The exhibition is curated by Good to Know.FYI and Jess Hodin Levy.
