Gemma Danielle

Gemma Danielle is a self-taught artist, based out of Maui, Hawaii. She is a master instructor of Usui Reiki, a lineage based Japanese healing technique, and has practiced for over 16 years. She offers her fine art as a transmission of this energy and as a devotional practice. Her work is experiential, with an irreplicable and elusive subtle energy that can only be sensed in the direct presence of her original works.


Pursuing the transcendental through nonobjective form and the ubiquitous languages of mathematics, geometry, and physics, she studies the ancient meditation tool of the mandala as a revelatory symbol of cosmic truth and an object of veneration. She silently repeats prayers, or mantras, with each line in the intricate geometric webs, and paints the precise straight lines freehand, without the aide of a ruler. 


Her mixed media collages are totemic meditations designed to align unconscious parts of the psyche, made from cut paper imagery found in vintage textbooks, different paints, ash, inks and foils. She utilizes colors according to the energetic properties of minerals and metal leafs, often using 24k gold leaf as the most potent conduit of electrical energy found in nature.
