Each Hexikon is a collection of six original prints affixed to a 4 x 4" solid cedar cube protected by several layers of polyurithans. The six images work together to fully explore the theme of the Hexikon. The images can stand alone, but they were designed to be viewed and considered as a group. Often, two images are paired off on opposite sides of the cube, their meanings either opposing or complementing each other.

Above all, Hexikons invite you to touch them and hold them in your hand. They beg to be examined and studied, guiding you in contemplation, meditation, and enjoyment.

MUNDI is Latin for the World, or Being in the World.

We are all spiritual beings sojourning in this material world, inhabiting our bodies as vehicles. While we are in this world, we are subject to its forces, limitations, and requirements. This Hexikon explores some of the important aspects and symbolism of life in this world.

MUNDI comes with a solid brass display stand, pictured above. The cube is delivered to you in a black, velvet drawstring bag, perfect for storage in your home, or to give as a gift.

The six sides are:

HOUSE

The House is the symbol of your life.

It represents your sphere of influence in the world, both physical, emotional, and intellectual. It is your memories. Above the House are Golden Keys, signifying the Wisdom gained through life. Below the House is a keyhole, symbolizing the secrets and forgotten things in life.

TIME

The fabric that connects our lives is Time. Our lives pulse with the rhythyms of Time: the cycles of the sun, moon, and planets. The large cycles of nature teach us lessons about the smaller patterns of our lives.

As above, so below.

WORK

On this earth, we all suffer the curse of Adam.

Our lives are bound and defined by Work. The star above represents the glory and achievement of labor. Below, the prison window reminds us that we are captive to the necessity of Work.

PLAY

Work should always be balanced with Play.

Through Play, we let go of our cares and embrace the joy of surprise and serendipity. We engage with the world in a joyful way, and dance with the here and now.

GIFT

Unsought-for, Gifts come to us from the world, bringing joy and love, disappointment and sadness. Some Gifts may seem wrong at first, but turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Gifts of all kinds remind us that we are not in control of our lives, but must accept both the good and the bad.

STORM

In every life, there are storms.

Illness, tragedy, and loss are storms that ravage our Houses in this world. The Houses that can best weather the storms of life are the Houses that have firm foundations.
