The Shamanic Power of Nature
Paula Guimaraes
México - June 2020
Paula Guimaraes splits her time between Coast Careye and Lisbon. Her work is known for the deep connection of shamanic powers and the healing powers of nature.
In our indigenous cultures it is understood that shamanic knowledge derives from an epistemology in which everything that exists –rocks, trees, wind, ocean, and deserts- is alive and has a soul. Because of this, all of us are part of a corporality that connects and unifies us. The natural world is full of life, filled with healing spirits that take us into an ontological awakening; the chirping bird's songs, the crackling of fire, the sound of the wind, the roaring of the waves. This exhibition reveals the shamanic power of Mother Earth. These extraordinary disruptive times are a calling for humanity to shift its gear and retake the wisdom inherent in Nature.
