In 2018, I underwent a traditional "Naerim Gut" (shamanic initiation) with three shamans from South Korea. Two were "mansins", masters of one thousand spirits. After the ceremony, I became keenly aware of the energy fields around plants and emitted by plants. This is a self portrait, surrounded by the life force of plants, filled with the life force of plants.
Self Portrait of artist amidst garden energy. Framed.
