Cliff Barber and the Flower of Life

von

This book is about the paintings of Cliff Barber. His work is built on mathematics and philosophy, both Eastern and Western. After fifty years of studying the Flower of Life, he finally created some paintings that he deems complete. This book will follow Cliff’s path through pure mathematics and philosophic thought. Just as Albert Einstein started out with the numbers 0 to 9 and came up with the simple and beautiful equation E=MC², Cliff started out with these same numbers and came up with a series of beautiful paintings.

„The paintings are a visible aid for yoga meditation. My hope is that the drawings take the emphasis away from the physical to the mental. You need to concentrate to look at it. The more you look at it, the more you concentrate. The painting should attract you.“
