The inspiration for my creative project came when Angela Voss introduced Ficino’s ‘Book of Life’ and the idea of creating an image of the cosmos to contemplate in your home. I had a powerful reaction and decided to create my own version: In his third book of life, Ficino draws on NeoPlatonic and Hermetic thought and writes about the animating properties of celestial objects on earthly objects.

The project aims to create a ‘home installation’ which is set aside for meditation and contemplation, filled with a series of paintings which evoke my representation of the cosmos, to support my own spiritual grounding.
