The Energy of Kundalini ~ My Story
|
THE UNIVERSE IS MUSIC
By Arna Baartz We’ll go back a bit. My childhood had been an interesting one, disruptive in that we moved on a yearly basis and I had to learn the lessons of detachment in order to survive emotionally. Even so, my parents were loving, doing the best they could with what they knew, extraordinarily creative and not immune to putting myself and my siblings into strange situations in order to encourage creative experience. For example, I have vague recollections of being rolled up naked in lengths of white gauze so Dad could film me unravelling, a butterfly emerging!

Artist Statement
The Art of Kundalini
I am on a journey of awakening to who I really AM, as I integrate more of my spirit into my physical body, I find my experience of life is expanding and changing. I am becoming present and fascinated, finding joy in seemingly insignificant moments, a leaf falls from the tree and I feel like writing a book about it. A stranger passes and I delight in their mere proximity.
The Art of Kundalini, is my way of sharing with you the way it feels to allow the resistances to joy to be acknowledged and ultimately allowed to roll away leaving me free to simply be.
I am the kind of person that pushes past my comfort in order to discover the 'what, why and how' of life.
This isn't always a 'good' thing but it does make for exciting artistic process!
My art isn't art only for women, it is art for everyone. The work is about the female energy that runs in some form or another through us all. It touches on our relationship with the women in our lives and helps heal the rifts that occur through our interactions with others. I feel that becoming aware of our perceptions about women and resolving our personal judgements can only improve the state of being, within and externally.
As a woman, I have painted and drawn such colour from the deepest parts of me, that I now know we are each an unfolding and deserve to express our story. My work is really about the love that lies in connecting the dots and finding our personal integrity.
