Autumn Buddha – At Rest
Inspired by the story of Buddha finding enlightenment whilst meditating underneath a sacred bodhi tree without moving for seven weeks. This piece, the fourth and final in the collection of 4 representing the four seasons of Buddha, the Autumn themed artwork of Buddha shows the natural beauty of gold and purple leaves surrounding Buddha’s peaceful meditation. The falling leaves are a symbol of the temporariness of all things and signal a change in season.

Timeless Buddha
£ 125.00 – £ 600.00 BUYThis piece is based on the famous story of Buddha finding enlightenment underneath a tree. This is part of a series of paintings completed for art-ma by Karun Soni, with both close ups and wider portrayals of the same scene- across various seasons.
He painted this after practicing meditation and learning more about the science behind spirituality, with many principles of original Buddhist meditation benefits still holding up in today’s studies of neuroplastocity and mindfulness.
The biggest part of this is losing the sense of “self” and observing all humans and everything around us as one- which is depicted in each piece of the series through maintaining the same colour palette for Buddha and the nature around him.

Rod of Asclepius
£ 90.00 – £ 400.00 BUYThe Rod of Asclepius is the most prominent symbol of healthcare, healing and medicine in the modern world. Its origins, however, can be traced back to Greek mythology and represents the medical prowess of the demi-God Asclepius, who was known for his healing powers.
The Rod of Asclepius includes two elements. The staff, which is a symbol of authority and a serpent coiled around it. According to Greek mythology, Asclepius got his medical knowledge through whispering snakes, who have the ability to shed their skin and emerge healthier than before. They, therefore, represent rebirth and rejuvenation.
Artist Ovidiu Kloska marries these two worlds to create his visually stunning interpretation of this symbol that was commissioned by Art-ma.

Aum at Dawn
£ 90.00 – £ 850.00 BUYThe AUM symbol symbolises the Universe and the ultimate reality. It is the sound that reverberates in the entire cosmos and in every cell of our body. It is believed to be the sound present at the beginning of the Universe from which all creation spawned. At the dawn of creation, from emptiness first emerged a syllable consisting of three letters – A-U-M (often written as OM).
The symbol has spiritual meaning across all Indian religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism.
The three phonetic parts of AUM also represent the rule of three. The holy trinity has many faiths built around it, and similarly, Aum represents all of these trios. This powerful syllable represents all that is and this trio links to many other aspects of life. This syllable is also linked to creation (Brahma), sustaining (Vishnu) and destruction (Shiva); Consciousness, unconsciousness, and subconsciousness; Heaven, Earth and The Underworld; Start, Middle and End; Dawn, Afternoon and Dusk.
By placing this beautiful AUM artwork in your home you are reconnecting to the love, peace and divine oneness within your own heart and throughout the Universe.
Here, the AUM symbol is represented by the artist using a technique called fragmentation.
