About the Item
Amidst the chaos of the material world, a temple rises—an ethereal reflection of a profound truth: the illusory nature of existence. In the ancient teachings of Hinduism and Buddhism, matter is Maya, the eternal dance of change that captivates the mind, making one forget the true essence of being.
As the soul awakens, it begins to perceive two realities: the external—fleeting, unstable, woven from shadows and light, and the internal—eternal, invisible, yet undeniably real. The temple, standing at the threshold between the temporary and the timeless, between form and essence, symbolizes this duality.
Just as the body is a temple for the soul, so is matter merely a vessel for consciousness. The only path to liberation from suffering is to recognize one’s true nature, to turn inward—where illusions dissolve, revealing the boundless reality of existence.

Ukrainian artist working under the pseudonym AreiRa. Born in 1988 in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Graduated from the Kharkiv Academic Art Lyceum and studied Interior Design at the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts. Since 2023, she has been actively engaged in painting, working primarily with acrylic and watercolor. Her artistic practice combines figurative and mythological imagery, exploring themes of inner transformation, spiritual resilience, and the search for harmony. She draws inspiration from sacred symbolism, architectural heritage, and the cultural codes of ancient civilizations, creating compositions rich in subtle metaphors and emotional depth. For AreiRa, painting is a form of meditative practice, where the material and the symbolic intertwine to open new inner dimensions. Her works have been exhibited in Ukraine and abroad. The artist’s practice evolves through a dialogue with philosophy and the visual language of global cultural heritage. Her works are aesthetic and spiritual focal points that harmonize space and open an inner silence.
