The idea of the project of Eliza and Julia KUAAMU - Kuzhebar Synergies is to bring together ancient signs, natural elements and modern materials like an example of the way, how the ancient and modern forms can be kept balanced, complete and support each other instead of destroying each other. We see that nowadays, people often feel disconnected from the Nature and their roots. Too much new information comes each day, too many things they have to manage at the same time, no time for rest, no time to stop and look around, no time to see the beauty of the Nature, no time to think about the life they live, no time to enjoy it... In ancient times, life looked different. Not so comfortable on one hand, but closer to the Nature and in harmony with the body and the mind on other hand. Ancient people knew how to speak with flowers and the wind, they understood how to respect the elements and they could "read" natural signs around them. Today, new technologies come into our life, changing it completely, putting us on the big distance from each other and from ancient natural life style. All that push us to create the project KUAAMU - Kuzhebar Synergies, which is our try to create a bridge between past and future, natural life style and high speed life in urban cities. Each object we make has a message, because the ancient kuzhebarian symbols are involved into them, what let them be called "Kuaamu". Kuaamu are actually a special kind of save objects which were used in the culture of Ancient Kuzhebar (South Siberia). At first sight, they can seem like jewellery but they are not. There was no idea in Ancient Kuzhebar to beautiful oneself because people thought they were primordial beautiful. By the way, they were very practical and it would be a nonsense for them to have some baubles on without any magic intention! We also use in our works natural elements, such as seeds, wood, pigments etc. which are combined with polymer clay, material that allows to create almost everything we want (there's no limit to imagination with this material, except those we impose to ourself). We put all our passion and love into each piece we create together. Each Kuaamu is unique and has its own purpose. We hope you'll enjoy the results of our collaboration and Kuaamu will bring more joy and harmony in you life, just stop, look at them and read the message they have. |
