MindScape-Artist Sheba Blitz

Sheba's contribution to MindScape explores the interface between the human brain and artificial implants and prostheses. Some of the works use actual medical x-ray scans which are incorporated into the art work using Photoshop.

Sheba Blitz is a RL and SL artist who exclusively paints Mandalas. Mandalas are ancient & mystical symbols of the universe. And the way of the "peaceful path".

Classically in the form of a circle (the Cosmos) enclosing a square (Earthbound matter). My Mandalas generally contain what is called a quarternity or a multiple of four. This squaring of the circle is a common archetypal image of wholeness and order.

Sheba was born and lives in Australia. Has studied, explored and accumulated many Art Diplomas from different art processes since 1968. But always returns to geometric, symmetrical design, painting and creating Mandalas in mixed media.

Mandalas are seen as sacred places by their very presence in the world, and remind the viewer of the immanence of sanctity in the universe and it's potential to themselves. And that there is a way to follow the "peaceful path". They are a means to discover divinity, by the realization that it resides within one's own self.
