Fruits of meditation
0.0/10
Overview
Every morning, Sumayah's father used to enjoy a particular meditative ritual which fascinated her as a child. He would close his eyes and enunciate different fruit names, all while making squeezing motions, as a means to disconnect from the outside world. Guava, orange, pomegranate, kiwi, apple. The same self-soothing refrain can be heard over an immersive ambient soundtrack in Fruits of Meditation, in which the artist tries to encapsulate the essence of her father's daily ritual in two parallel videos. The video on the left, depicts the father in meditation, witnessing the profound connection he forges with fruits and the process of selecting them. The act of choosing the fruit takes on a meditative quality. On the right, the artist attempts to replicate her father's ritual, albeit not fully comprehending its significance as she is still trying to understand the process.
