“(Harmony) offers many subtle and myriad relationships to the aesthetic sense of vision, but it demands that the beholder searches within and between all the parts. This, the journey of the mind, takes time. Additional is the symbolic component. And here the cultural history of the beholder, impregnated as it is with the individual's ‘tribe/ country’, adds another dimension.

“What the work offers is the possibility of searching at both of these levels. The glory is the multitude of relationships…There is so much to be found, and as I search, I realise the fascination of the journey…the illumination that comes from identifying…the joy of observing the subtleties of colours and tones. It is a mental event, and it is time bound, just as in music. But it requires effort or participation to gain rewards/ satisfaction. The more the mind is prepared the more will be gained. Unfortunately for many people their educational background is inadequate to provide the necessary framework for achieving this kind of attitude to life.”
(G.H. Jamieson, 2007)

HARMONY Collection: The Hand of God in Asia. For three years (2006-08), the artist travelled and worked throughout Asia and the Pacific. She marvels at Asia’s spectacular variety, both of nature and of man-made spiritual artifacts, all peacefully and harmoniously co-existing.

In the Gobi desert of Mongolia, solitary trees are used as scaffolding to build altars of faith: ongoing mounds of rocks from which the now-dead branches reach to the sky, clothed no longer with leaves but with blue Shamanic prayer flags. No traveller may pass by without stopping, walking three times around the site in a clockwise direction and throwing his own three stones to add to the ever-growing pile. The bright blue stands out against the arid backdrop, as do the brilliant home (ger) and temple doorway decorations in traditional Mongolian designs and colours.
