For centuries we have drawn on the earth without giving back, and we break fundamental natural laws and disturb the harmonious balance of our planet. We used to live with the circular rhythm of creation, but today we have a linear connection to the time by trying to control it because it gives us a sense of existential security, but by doing that we go against the natural law and our destiny. Without losing our cultural achievements and by gradual awakening we can change our attitude and drive our beautiful planet to a harmonious future. The Rainbow shell, spiral is an art- workshop for children of age 9-12 years old. The children have to make a three-dimensional art-piece in form of a shell with the basic colours of rainbow. The children travel into the shell where light and repeated sounds exist. Spiral The circle and the circular movement symbolizes the time, the movement, the repetition, and the infinity. It can be found everywhere, in the universe, in the air, in the eye of cyclone, in the sea, shells, in the movement of planets, in the seasons, in the light, in our everyday routine, in our thoughts, in our sentiments…. Aims -To give any possibility via the artistic process -To learn how to use recycled materials -Consciousness -Harmony seeking your center -Learn to work as a team -To compose materially, texture, colour, light, dimensionally in the space. Process -Introduction on the use of materials and the construction of the shell -Short games (to build up a team) -Split in 6 groups -Each group will have to make a part of the shell. (See Figure 1) -Cover with color paper or any transparent material and paint on it. (Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, ultramarine.) (See Figure 2) -Connect the parts. -Put lights (LED) and sound inside. -One by one each child goes inside of the spiral. -Each time you walk inside of the shell may be for a different reason. You may be seeking: -Balance or cantering healing connection to your higher self, opening awareness, experiencing the energies -Once you reach the centre of the labyrinth you can: -Relax, meditate, seek answers to questions (See Figure 3) 106
The shell-labyrinth experience for the children could be a potent practice of self-integration. On the journey in, towards the center, one cleanses the dirt from the road. On the journey out, one is born and a new consciousness dwells in the human body, made holy by having a taste of the infinity center. Figure 1. Spiral Shell in Progress 107
