Breathings

Trained as a gemologist, filmmaker and anthropologist Bapa Jhala assembles a mobile sculpture called ‘Breathings’ that are composed of feathers, quills, shells, seeds, gemstones and other organic and found materials. The mobility and velocity comes from air volumes being moved by the moments of persons in confined spaces. Longevity of motion is sustained by the continuum of gravity. Movement makes the invisible visible. The association of obits and stillness with meditative practices confers the idea that dynamic action resides in perceived inaction.
