Prana, Borneo

MURAL IN BORNEO SUPPORTING LOCAL CONSERVATION INITIATIVES

Acrylic, 20 x 20, 2023, Borneo, Indonesia


The mural Nature's Prana was painted in West Kalimantan, Borneo, for Health in Harmony, an international nonprofit dedicated to reversing deforestation and climate change. They do so in a non-colonial way through human-centered solutions with local communities that involve healthcare and forest restoration, aiming to reverse tropical rainforest deforestation to halt the climate and nature crises.

Health in Harmony initiated an educational program for children and teenagers focused on conservation and the interconnectedness of humans and rainforests. Ekaterina and photographer Vika led artistic workshops covering photography, painting, and self-discovery to empower youth in environmental advocacy.

Divine Gift

PRIVATE COMMISSION IN LOS ANGELES

Acrylic, 5 x 16', 2023, Los Angeles, CA

This mural, commissioned by a private collector, artistically celebrates the birth of two children, each represented by their spirit animals: a Scorpio and a hummingbird. The Scorpio side of the mural is depicted with edgy patterns, embodying the divine masculine. In contrast, the hummingbird's side is rendered with soft, gentle spirals, symbolizing the divine feminine. Central to the composition is a six-winged stork, an allegorical representation of a six-winged angel. This figure symbolizes the surrogate who brought the long-awaited children into the world. The mural poetically conveys that these children are forever sheltered under the protective wings of the divine.

Transformation

COLLECTIVE ART PROJECT

26 x 8', 2023, Black Rock City, Nevada

Transformation, can be an uncomfortable journey, yet it leads us towards a better self. This mural, conceived during meditation, seemed puzzling at first – a vision of floating in transforming water. Its true meaning, revealed later, was about rebirth and rising into the ether.

At the mural's base, fishes symbolize evolution's start, evolving into eyes as they ascend. Central to this transformation is a woman, embodying surrender, enveloped in nature's embrace, signifying our ascent to higher consciousness through connection with nature. Intricate topography on her limbs highlights our deep bond with Mother Earth, underscoring the mural's profound message of growth and unity.

Interconnectedness

Acrylic, 10 x 10’, 2023, Pyramids of Chi, Ubud, Bali


This mural, embodying a woman-like figure sculpted from the essence of topography, represents the intricate mapping of our souls intertwined with Earth's tapestry. It symbolizes our journey of self-discovery, mirroring the exploration of our world. The external landscape reflects our inner world, with every interaction resonating profoundly. At its heart, a human heart glows with golden light, symbolizing purity and soulful essence, urging us to connect deeply and transform positively. The third eye chakra depicted emphasizes our divine connection, guiding transformative actions for planetary and life nurturing.
