Ripple

Sky Spirit Studio

Inspired by a River Blessing and generated in consultation with the local Inglewood community and representatives from the Blackfoot and Cree Nations, this walking circle is designed to be a meaningful vantage point from which to consider the river.

About this work

Seven pathways coil towards a central meditative space which hosts four motifs to represent the stages of life and compass points. Birth (east) is represented by the eagle, an otter (south) signifies youth, middle age (west) is characterized by a beaver and the buffalo (north) embodies wisdom age. The seven paths also represent the seven teachings of humility, respect, truth, courage, honesty, love and wisdom. There is a subtle break added to the walking circle, allowing a mythical river to symbolically flow through the circle.
