SACRED RITES

The video “Sacred Rites: Jeweled Initiation” is a contemporary ‘mystery’ reflecting modern polarities through a sustainable prism, and instilling each jewelry piece with a reverence for Nature’s divinity. Through an iterative process of discovery and adornment, art becomes a balm for the modern soul, facilitating a communion with Nature that culminates in final union with the Divine.

Just as the Eleusinian Mysteries included the deiknymena (things shown) and dromena (things enacted), this film focuses on ceremony and revelation, where art is the conduit to enlightenment and ultimate liberation.
