Enhanced Well Being

“Through the hand created we see who we are, our innate capabilities of intuition and awe, humility and ego.”

The way we live is a reflection of how we see ourselves, our approach to living life and our desires for the future. To surround oneself with beauty is to be inspired, curious and even hopeful. Through the hand created we see who we are, our innate capabilities of intuition and awe, humility and ego. To live with and touch objects of beauty taps into the deepest self, sparking the mind and pulling at emotions, enhancing well being. This is where the intuitive self meets the outer world: the physical manifestation of emotion, revery and awe. 

“Each of us have the ability to create, to find resolve and to create beauty, born from the stars its vastness is expansive, evolving as we evolve.” 

Deep in the belly of knowing is where the creative languages emerge, arising through the history of evolution and self discovery. The creative mind is innate as blood and bone, enabling the telling of stories and the righting of wrongs. Each of us have the ability to create, to find resolve and to create beauty, born from the stars its vastness expands, evolving as we evolve. 

“If form follows function it’s function that speaks to our needs and form that speaks to our desires.”

The connection between how we live and the hand created object is truly innate, documenting centuries of our being human. If form follows function, it’s function that speaks to our needs and form that speaks to our desires. Regardless of form and function hierarchies, the hand created object speaks to who we are and how we live, inspiring both, giving expression to the otherwise intuitive. The hand created acts as extra extended hand, clearer voice and vision.

"Take a look at the simplest of objects. Let's take, for example, an old chair. It seems like nothing.

But think of the universe comprised within it: the sweaty hands cutting the wood that used to be a robust tree, full of energy, in the middle of a luxuriant forest by some high mountains. The loving work that built it, the joyful anticipation of the one who bought it, the tired bodies it has helped, the pains and the joys it must have endured, whether in fancy halls or in a humble dining room in your neighborhood.

Everything, everything shares life and has its importance! Even the most worn down of chair carries inside the initial force of the sap climbing from the earth, out there in the forest, and will still be useful the day when, broken into kindling, it burns in some fireplace.”
