Spirals of transparent energy crystallized by colored recycled glass joined by iron and lead threads.

“The image is the visual eye open to the Spirit, it becomes a reflection of the Interior ; microcosms & macrocosms, shadows & lights ... My research in this visual direction is where the alchemy ... the material metamorphoses, the alloy of the fire ... of the water ... of the air ... of the Earth ... of the metals is a never ending story ...”  Maru

Los Angeles,

Visual language composed with modules ... Pentagrams written in the space creating internal atmospheres, conducive to daydreaming, and external, such as trees of life under the magical lights of the sun and of the moon ... These pieces come in various sizes ranging from 67 cm x 40 cm and 200 cm x 80 cm … They live in freedom like musical notes ... Fields of alpine flowers … Enchanted forests ... Each artwork is composed of panels of twisted iron, bent in the shape of rods which are reversed and welded together … Glass pieces are then woven into an opened frame feathery forming a stained glass slightly suspended in its iron holder ...

Crafts and ecological ... they are made from recycled bottles …

Broken by thermal shock, recycled bottles then give life to glass tiles ... I make each artwork from the new pieces, carefully chosen, always looking for transparencies ... textures ... depths... in a perpetual discovery where the alliance of the fire is always unexpected and surprising ... to create atmospheres conducive to daydreaming ...

MARU’S STATEMENT

The Tree of Life series is a colored tribute to chief Raoni Metuktire, emblematic figurehead of the fight against deforestation in the Amazon, whom passed the case to the European Union and whom was received by the President of the French Republic, Francois Hollande.

Maru’ objective is to alert and educate denouncing the confiscation of land in the Amazon for economic projects and very painful that devastate the lives of her people. About 1% of the population of Venezuela belongs to indigenous groups, it is estimated that there are 34 groups that maintain their own culture, radically different from the culture inherited from the period of Spanish colonization. Many still stick to their traditional ways of life, their conditions and their languages​​.

The current situation of many Indians is precarious. Extreme poverty and high mortality, as well as an intrusion into their traditional lands by foreign groups and mining that seem to destine to the disappearance of several ethnic groups, especially inthe Amazon.

In July, a group of Yanomami, Venezuelan indians, reported being victims of an alleged attack by illegal miners, Brazilian garimpeiros, who may have left "an unknown number of victims", according to the complaint filed with the authorities of the state of Amazonas, in the south the country. According to the complaint, three survivors of the attack that would have affected a community of 80 people, and it is feared they may have died. In 1993, 16 Yanomami Indians were killed by garimpeiros in what became known as the slaughter of Haximú.
