Dreams, Saints and Angels - Jet Schneider

Dreams, Saints and Angels - Jet Schneider

The collection of gouache/pastel paintings is inspired by the poet Rumi's quote: “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you
there." (Rumi, 1207-1273). The paintings are inspired by dreams and meditation. Besides images of dreams, angels and of well-known saints like Hildegard of Bingen and Brigid of Kildare, the artist painted images of three people that have deeply influenced her life as modern-day saints. They are "looking in" at us from behind the dualistic, black-and-white barrier of our life, as they are now in the playful and unitive "field beyond wrongdoing and rightdoing".

Accompanying them are paintings of four Archangels (Rafael, Uriel, Gabriel and Michael) whose archetypal energies (Healing, Wisdom, Bridge building and
Warrior) these individuals gave human form to. The saint archetype is accessible to all of us; anyone can be a source of goodness in the lives of others, and in this way can be a modern day saint.
