Mariela de la Paz, is a Chilean artist who has researched the Mesoamerican, Andean and Amazon cultures for over 20 years, and has been channeling this art through Sacred Power Plants. These paintings reflect the traditions of ancient rituals, which invoke the ancestral memory of the universal soul.
  
"The Toad"                 


"Venus of the Forest"

Sacred plants are entities of a female nature, and considered by the sages of these cultures as spiritual allies. The substances within these plants cause in-formation currents to pass through the body, which then arouses and resonates with a cosmic awakening. These are intimately related to the procreation of life on this planet, and they bring light and love.


"Moon Tears"

Mariela de la Paz's visions have been recorded into these paintings, and they express the journey of the soul in all its vital cycles: birth, death, the celebration of life, and the transcendence to planes of ascension and liberation.


"Nuke Mapu"

This visionary art is a form of "darshan", because the person who contemplates the painting receives a blessing. The observer becomes the subject. There is a universal resonance with the human experience. Mariela de la Paz has been able to express something profoundly intimate and personal in her art, but in a universal way that we have all experienced.


"The Condor"

Sacred medicinal plants act as a meditative state that stills the minds, so as to connect us with reality in all of its realms, taking us away from linear time and putting us in touch with multidi-mensionality.


"Copihue"

Mariela de la Paz has been able to deliver, through her forms and colors, a timeless and sacred message which will remain in the eye of the beholder as a unique and non-repeatable experience. This sacred art is a profound meditative experience and mystical opening.

Musings
 
 

Art is not so much expressing oneself, as it is discovering oneself.
- Anawanitia

The only thing better than singing is more singing.
- Ella Fitzgerald

Stop. Breathe. Allow yourself the luxury of doing nothing for a moment, or an hour, or even a day. It is in emptiness that inspiration will appear.
- Carole Katchen

I don't see why we ever think of what others think of what we do – no matter who they are. Isn't it enough just to express yourself?
- Georgia O'Keeffe

Poetry

Fried Sugar Throat

Peel me like a pear
I don't care
wear me anyway you want
as long as I'm soft
drawn open
a fried sugar throat
a resting bone
breath like strawberry
and a sore sore throat
so sore I rub it
I love it

Do whatever you want
I don't care
as long as I'm soft
tasting tangerine
caught like a thief
whispering vines
in between teeth

My hands wander
my eyes wander
my heart wanders
I'm fine as long as you
let me go on about with
this sweetness
a fried sugar throat
going sweeter
with every turn

Peel me like a pear
I don't care
spin me round
see what you create
little jewel box handler
wear me anyway you want
I don't care
as long as I'm soft
sore and sweet.
