In 2013, Tatiana Parcero initiated the Mudra series. The intimate works integrate astrological maps and the Artist’s own hand in different yoga gestures. This hand is open, thus receiving. The elegantly rendered zodiac signs surround the open palm on which rests the solar system and text “EX HIS CREATOREM.”
Parcero said of this work: Hands are more than just functional parts of our body, they are an energy map of our consciousness and health. Each area of the hand corresponds to a certain area of the body, as well as to different emotions and behaviors. By bending, crossing, stretching, and touching our fingers and palms, we can effectively communicate with our body and mind. The position adopted by the hands is called mudra and it is a technique to give clear messages to the body-mind system.
