The Waiting Room is an intuitively guided study of religious and archetypical imagery and their unison with the physical world in which we parade. Like a fallen leaf tossed by the wind, KROW has spent the past three years imitating a ghost—floating quietly in the ancient spirit-kindling expanses of India and Sri Lanka. On the last leg of his journey he attended Maha Kumbh Mela, an event that occurs only once every twelve years, celebrating Jupiter’s revolution and the sites where the nectar of immortality was dropped by the Gods in a mythological past. It was the largest gathering of people on the planet, with over half a billion human beings gathered along the shore of the Ganges river.


“In my quest to speak without words and to see the divine that flows in the veins of all beings, I am often engulfed in, and filled with, a silence similar to that of a child in a womb, the ultimate waiting room.” -KROW
