The project is divided into 9 parts, First the candles are lit, this weaving is a representation of the 1st piece of the ceremony when the cleansing of the candles are lit. After this comes the cleansing with the sage, then the ringing of the singing bowl to show the ceremony has begun.
The next three pieces will show the body opening ready for all the thoughts to come out, then the then the crematorium which shows you burning in your own thoughts, then the next one is the cocoon where your are solidified in your own mental torment. The last 3 pieces are based on the rainbow body phenomenon. Where at the time of death if you become enlightened your body shoots out into rainbow light. Each piece is shown with rainbow threads getting blacker showing that everything is pure is being taken away. The project was made as a reminder to stop this cycle. Concentrate on every thought and let them arise and fall.

*This is a representation of the large sculpture which stands around 6ft 8in tall and is made of wool, wax, and resin. The weaving is made of wool and has black tourmaline rock beads all around it to represent the sage.
