Rainmaker #1, #2, #3, #4
During times of drought, the ability to invoke rain is a divine answer to prayer and desire. Rain can be interpreted literally, or symbolically as compensation, sustenance, fruit, and opportunity. One cannot command “rain;” very similarly how one cannot command God or Mother Nature. However, we can connect with and surrender ourselves to the mystery of a Higher Power, living in communion with it. Becoming one with the source of all creation.
“I wanted to give these works an empowering title, that inspires the viewer to channel an assertive and positive meaning from the work into their own lives. When I first think of a Rainmaker, I think of the Native American ritual: the rain dance, a sacred dance I view as a prayer and giving thanks. In business, a Rainmaker is a top earner, someone who is able to produce desired results, money and opportunity. In modern culture, the term, “making it rain,” refers to making money fall from the sky. Rain, and the ability to make it rain, is about connecting to, becoming one with abundance.””
