portal for creative expression
The Sun symbolizes our identity, individual destiny, and the power of creative expression, which are the qualities attributed to the sign of Leo: self-expression, self-knowledge, self-realization. The energy of this New Moon directs us towards the deeper psychological and spiritual meaning of the Sun where the conscious and unconscious unify in a person.

During this Full Moon the Moon is in Uttarashada Nakshatra of Capricorn, together with Saturn which is the planetary ruler of this Mansion. This is the Nakshara of victory, where a permanent success has been achieved, so now we learn how to manage our resources, and take responsibility for what we have. It also gives us an opportunity to work for the universal greater good of all beings aligning with the energy of the Sun currently in the constellation of Cancer, in Nakshatra Pushya represented as The Star of Nourishment.
This Full Moon on the Leo / Aquarius axis creates opportunities to understand the symbols and cycles that govern our civilization. Sun opposition Moon opens up the Aquarian Portal, showing us a glimpse of what is possible if the ego and soul energies resolve the polarity: the individual and the collective, the personal and the universal.
The actual plants we grew in the installation may look like a spark of hope within the detritus and pixel jungle but none of these plants are edible or medicinal, they’re poisonous. The hologram projections are the digital ghosts of existing plants that are medicinal: they are 3d scans of actual plants from my garden in France. There are three levels of reality within this piece, actual vegetation, our cardboard interpretation of it and digital data, merging into a relaxing but political landscape.
