The Owl Circus
Art Alchemy Awake
Irish Moss of a Dead Man’s Skull
by Nuala Clarke
Irish Moss of a Dead Man’s Skull is an alchemical portfolio; an ode to light, colour, loss, and the elements. It is also a fierce meditation on the inherent healing power of abstract art. Visual artist Nuala Clarke explores three bodies of her work (or “healings”) and through them, navigates an ever-deepening awareness of the mystery of being and painting; demonstrating that such awareness is both an essential requirement for—and the innate result of—abstraction.
Radiating Outward, Incrementally: A Manual
An experimental commentary on Atiśa’s 59 Lojong Slogans.
by writer Crystal Gandrud and visual artist Nuala Clarke
Radiating Outwards, Incrementally is a natural extension of the on-going collaboration between visual artist Nuala Clarke and writer Crystal Gandrud. The work is an exploration of the feminine-energy emanations of the 57 Slogans of Atiśa, a 10th century Indian meditation master.
The Owl Circus is dedicated to the union of Awareness and Art. We publish books, maps, manuals, manifestos. Guides to navigation in the perceptual space of the question: what is awakening?
