Sky Castles

Mandalas, epitomising cosmic energy and universal serenity, are ancient spiritual symbols that highlight our intrinsic relationship with the boundless natural world. In an ecofeminist light, they emphasise the intersectionality of nature, feminine power, and spiritual connection.

Anneke Stewart, intertwines these themes with the sentiment of "As Above So Below." Through her photographic lens, Anneke brings to the forefront the kaleidoscopic beauty of nature Mandalas, asserting art's transformative and nurturing power. Her pieces, seamlessly merged with New Zealand's rich, verdant landscape, stand as a testament to the divinity and resilience of Aotearoa and Mother Earth. 

Drawing from ecofeminist ideals, Anneke's work harnesses vibrations that unite artist and viewer in a collective, earth-centered consciousness. In this narrative, Mandalas act as eco-spiritual gateways, steering souls towards a harmonious balance with nature and emphasising unity in the face of patriarchal divides.
