I really enjoyed the variety of medium represented in this exhibit, from stitch work to giant blow up Buddha lying in the middle of the exhibit hall. What about all the great installation arts? My favorite was the free range graphic on screen by Louis Fox, with rotating images of water lily inside a little window carved on a stone Buddha, water lily inside a beast, water lily inside a warrior, etc., suggesting that “all beings by nature have Buddha (seed of purity represented by water lily) in his continuum”. If you stay long enough to watch the whole video, you will be taken back to the original image of the Buddha, and the water lily will turn to bright light (suggestive of illumination). It was as if going through the process of illumination myself. [Edit by="hlee on Aug 20, 12:11:44 PM"][/Edit]
