CITTA SAMTANA by James Verbicky

Citta Samtana is Sanskrit and refers to the Buddhist concept of continuation of consciousness, moment by moment from this life into the next and on and on… The language and images he layers in each piece solidifies and very literally in the resin, immortalizes the voices and visions of the people of the past, places that no longer exist in time. Their words become an amalgamation of human culture and consciousness, enshrined in vivid color.
