<b>The Art of [Domestic] Enlightenment</b> is an exploration of the spiritual potential present in even the most mundane of tasks. It is also an acknowledgement of the disconnect between this ideal and the daily struggle to engage with the spiritual and creative worlds within the realm of the domestic and motherhood. </div>

In the decade before becoming a mother I was introduced to the teachings of Ajahn Chah and Thich Nhat Hanh. I found an affinity with Thich Nhat Hanh’s use of Gathas - short verses that assist in mindfulness and gratitude in everyday life. Yet even after living almost two decades with these teachings, I still find myself striving for magical quiet moments of space and clarity. Past memories of week-long retreats and countless art camps in aesthetically spectacular desert locations linger. My life at present offers altogether different opportunities for enlightenment; the daily rituals that take place within the realm of the domestic - in a small mill cottage that looks out to a much loved mountain.</div>

The zen proverb <i>‘before enlightenment chop wood, carry water; after enlightenment chop wood, carry water’</i> speaks to me not only of bringing enlightenment back to the everyday but of finding enlightenment <i>within</i> the everyday.</div>

Pyramids have long been a part of my personal mythology. Still, I
had never envisaged myself making a life at the base of one; nor had I
anticipated the daily joy of watching the ebb and flow of sunlight and shadow
over such a striking form. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

pyramid, a monument, a land mark, a way home, a constant, an elevation, a
refuge, a trek, a focal point, a composition, a journey, a challenge, a
comfort, a waterfall, a silent witness, a sentinel, a peak, a silhouette, a
shape shifter, a sunset, a lighthouse<o:p></o:p></span></div>
