Pyramids represent accumulators and transformers of the energy that is concentrated in their centre. The energy comes from the depths of the earth and the neighbouring space and flows from the base to the apex. The pyramid is the primal hill, the mythical and holy place of birth, resurrection and eternal life linking the earth and the heavens. Burial chambers were to be found within the pyramid. Kristek’s sculpture The Cosmically Timed Parapyramidal Potency allows energy to be drawn. The pilgrim climbs on to its wall, presses himself against it and merges with its surface. Here he can draw sufficient natural energy, gain equilibrium for living and personal balance. The sculpture also balances the flow of energy in the immediate surroundings, and a secret meditation chamber is to be found at its centre.
