Saab – Shaman abstracts ancient Blues

The shaman we once were is now hidden by rationality, skepticism, conceit, lack of imagination. The child recalls the shaman in himself whenever he observes and simply traces what we have stopped seeing. It’s all there, in that look full of love that takes and gives. The fruitful exchange in a time in which forests, spirits, dances, heaven and earth were made of one thing.
My shaman is not a Medicine-man, he is the one who goes in search of the spirits and returns from the journey with a munificent vision. It is a gesture of instinctive color that comes from nothing and has the confidence to trace a possible way of transformation – To share and walk together – Taking care of angels, demons and minor stars.
