SHAM-MAN

‘SHAM-MAN’ is an installation of 8 ceramic totems and represents the many spiritual paths we may embark upon. But similar to many of these paths ‘SHAM-MAN’ is devoid of meaning and true purpose. So in the end ‘SHAM-MAN’ won’t provide any spiritual enlightenment. Instead you will leave as empty and alone as you came.

Does this path have a heart?
– Carlos Castaneda
