Matting Offerings to God
Matting is usually used to cover floors or
packing to enhance grace and elegance of the covered material. Similarly, our
noble deeds act as a gift for God while our sinful acts play a role of bad
offerings to God. The matting of good intentions on noble deeds enhance their
value even further, whereas matting of bad intentions on sinful deeds makes
them even more dreadful.
People in Bali
are famous for their rituals and traditions. The way they start their day astonishes
every other person. Their sincere and devoted worship to God is key to success in
their life. They have idols in their homes and place them in their gardens.
Every morning, they offer prayers sitting on a straw mat. The offerings are
simple but made on a consistent basis. Every day, at least one person from a
family prepares offerings.
Sweet dragonflies also try to copy Balinese
people and offer their own rituals to make Gods happy. They make their own
small idols from straw or other similar things and offer prayers around them.
They sometimes circulate around their idols or offer tiny gifts asking for
blessings from them. Our Sweet Dragonflies also worship Gods and are always
busy in praising his majesty. Their chatter in synchronization imitates praying
to Gods. They provide matting of sincerity and innocence in their offerings.
They fly high into the skies to bow in front of their magnificence.
In this collection, the combination between
traditional Balinese woven and contemporary modern design inspired our artists
to create a priceless art design. The additional element of Sweet Dragonfly
enhances this design and makes it come to life.
