Hello and welcome.
The artistic inspiration of Khmer style emerged through Cambodia's native animistic beliefs. These statues are unique, they are sacred, and pose worthy of veneration. There is a meticulous and symbolic wisdom held in these pieces. They draw you in. Let them. They hold an elusive magnetism which is broad and expansive, beyond what our limited language can offer. What is dissected through words and made intelligible for our minds to make sense of tends to create a sort of lingering tension. This restricts our ability as humans to comprehend certain concepts and experiences to the fullest.
Commit to engage with these pieces by honing into the very essence of what they represent. If you do, a connection will take shape and you will experience a non-verbal comprehension as to what these pieces are intended to be: A formless yet thorough peace of mind conceived through an anciently sculpted formation. The oxymoron is perfect. Stay curious as you give some space and respect to the rare & brilliant talent of these Khmer artists . . . Trust what the absoluteness suggests. The wisdom carried in the aged stone is an offering to those who will receive it.
Take one more thought into account . . . Through an animistic belief, all objects, from places and creatures possess a distinctive spiritual essence; this allows the human imagination to appreciate all things lucid and alive! This process from separation to oneness teaches us that TRUE LIFE is to be experiences both around and inside us. Ultimately, the goal of all spiritual practice is to unite with this Supreme Soul.
*Khmer artwork offers our collectors the opportunity to become LIVING inspirations to this rare and sacred statuary.
We thank you for trusting us,
Peace By Piece.
