Artist Statement
The sculptural installation “Rock Garden for Ritual without the Myth” could be read as a universal ritual space in which each sculpture indicates a stage in a process of continuous transformation. Unfolding circular movement, where the beginning and the end are interchangeable, the installation aims to assemble elements from specific cultural contexts, reflecting on the dynamics of geographical dislocation and other displacements and transactions. Viewers are invited to interpret the “ritual” space and to act freely inside the circle. This installation brings together practices that revisit the idea of RITUAL as a catalyst for transformative experience.
