Buddha for a wedding

This Bud­dha was com­mis­sioned to be a wed­ding gift for a cou­ple who shared a strong spir­i­tual com­mit­ment and dif­fer­ent reli­gious beliefs. They wanted a piece of art to remind them that it is pos­si­ble “to keep it together,” to stay together despite the tur­moil, strug­gle and dif­fer­ences that life brings.  I tried to give to their piece a grounded and solid sense of cohe­sive­ness as I inte­grated the sym­bols of their indi­vid­u­al­ity.  The Bud­dha is at the cen­tre of the image, anchored in a pow­er­ful life stream.

Here are some pho­tos of the project
