This image was meant to be inter-tribal,
connecting the southern and northern nations.
I added in some plains indian images
with wixarika colors and face paint.
This image has a picture of hikuri which is a
scared medicine to my people. Again I wanted
to make the image inter-tribal so I drew a
medicine wheel to surround the hikuri as well as
a image of the sun and moon. The sun and
moon are to reflect a balance of
elements such as in yin and yang or masculine
and feminine. Within the Sun I have drawn bear
paws
and an eagle feather. Within the moon I drew
wolf paws and an owl feather. Again this is
meant to include all or our relations and show
a balance in the nations represented within the
image. In addition, I included a verse in Urdu
(my gf is pakistani and speaks both urdu and
english)....

As much control as we think we exert over
our lives, truth be told, we have very little
impact. We're born, we live, we may
marry, we work, and we pass on, leaving
an imprint or not. Significant Numbers - A
Ransomed Life is about moments that
happen - about dates that are significant
to us. Its form is a ransom note, complete
with individually cut out numbers. The
numbers in boldface font are significant to
me, but in this visualization of one
person's life reduced to years on a
calendar, I hope it resonates with
others, and creates a philosophical way
station for self-reflection.

Who I really am!
Gnostic Heaven and Hell
In homage to Mantegna and the Ducal Palace.
The overall shape of the piece is in a very thick ‘TAU’
cross, which is a ‘T’ shape. This ‘T’ shape was the
historic cross that Romans used for crucifixion.
The very bottom of the cross, with the cat and birds,
is slightly irregular in shape at its sides. This part is
called Ialdabaoth’s Evil Creation. For Gnostics, this
god of creation was
evil because the need to kill life
to eat and live was seen as realities’ inherent evil
design.
This creator god, Ialdabaoth the demiurge, was not
the ‘Most High’ god of the divine.
Moving upward in the artwork, below the crosspiece,
on the viewer’s left is the Emptiness of Space, and on
the viewer’s right is the Emptiness of Time. Between
the two is Hell,
which is contained by the two hands. Hell is
represented as a hill of damned souls with an
enormous skull at the summit.
This is Golgotha where Christ was crucified.
Surmounting the skull is the Archangel Michael
triumphing over the dragon, representing the
apocalypse.
The upper arm of the ‘TAU’ cross has a background
of the Night Sky on the exterior sections and the Day
Sky in the interior. To the viewer’s left is Mystery’s
Perspective and to the viewer’s right is the Blind Eye
of Love
. In the top center of the cross is the Portal of
Heaven.
