A few months ago, I challenged myself in climbing up to the peak of Mount Rundle, one of the Canadian Rockies Mountains. It is located near Banff, Alberta. After many hours of climbing, at an elevation of 2,000 meters, I took the photograph which underlies the neuronal patterns in this silk scarf.
The wind blowing through the trees. The solitude. Sunlight streaming down. The oneness with such beautiful nature. And, the physical exhaustion. All these added together to produce a truly deep, spiritual experience. Please view my YouTube VIDEO.
My own climb was up from the shadows at the base of this mountain, upwards to the open sunlight. This parallels our own need to climb up from the depths and seek the wonder of unity with nature, unity with God’s creation.

These are large-scale, 100% pure silk scarves, 140 x 140 cm (55 x 55 in). Given their size, they are more properly called wraps (skraistės in Lithuanian). Most designer scarves, at their largest, are only 90 x 90 cm (35 x 35 in). These are two and a half times that size.
The mulberry silk used is of the highest quality with twill weaving. The printing techniques are state of the art. All materials used in the production process are environmentally friendly, non-toxic with OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certification. STANDARD 100 is the strictest environmental certification in the world. The company that does my printing has 14 years of experience working with silk. These scarves are heavy, durable and warm.
These scarves should only be dry cleaned. Ironing is best done dry, non-steam.
