About

Pandora's Eye is a temple of creation myth and the paradoxical nature of pandora's box. The temple is a decagon reciprocal timber frame and spiral oculus with traditional joinery. The walls are 200 year old salvaged rosewood panels from a buddhist temple in Thailand, repurposed with new life. Monumental original paintings line the walls, vivid depictions of creation mythologies, sacred animals, and lush natural forms. The work explores the divine feminine, the freedom of nature and the body, and the alchemical dance between spirit and matter. The Eye is the moment of emergence and awareness when the universe begins to see itself. It is also a call to change our attitude towards nature, the planet, and our bodies.
