Gaia and Feminine Spirituality by Bianca Peel

My current body of work features paintings exploring notions of Gaia and feminine spirituality, the healing powers of nature and holistic transformation and growth. My artwork has always been a catalyst for healing and meditation, holding very personal and vulnerable truths. Landscape works stem from times of excessive stress or angst. I engage in Zen meditation painting and allow intuition to guide my colour choices. I sit in a private space listening to music with a combination of binaural beats in the alpha frequencies (8 to 13 Hz) which are thought to encourage relaxation, promote positivity, and decrease anxiety and binaural beats in the lower beta frequencies (14 to 30 Hz) which have been linked to increased concentration and alertness, problem solving, and improved memory. Although watercolours are not my favoured medium, the moving pieces stem from the delicate balance of self regulation and overwhelming emotions. Finally, The Faces Series stem from periods of self reflection and nature connection. An exploration of the self in the present moment and reflections of growth from the past and aspirations for the future. ~ Bianca Peel
