Abstract
My recent art practice involves the ancient symbol of 108, an Asian astronomical number that is used for ritual and tantric enlightenment. It represents the complete universe, and expresses coincidences in astronomical measurements, involving the relative diameters of the earth, moon and sun as well as the distances between them.
