Elijah Burgher doing a sigil ritual performance at Parse Gallery for Caligula – 6/8/12

Elijah Burgher is a Chicago based artist who incorporates magick into his artistic practice and vice versa. We’ve corresponded for a year and I’ve been wanting to find a way to work together and Caligula seemed like the perfect opportunity to make it happen.

Jon Stewart helpfully points out that under proposed New York City and State laws, “This soda (more than 16 ounces) is twice as illegal as this much weed (a single ounce).”

Engraved in the forehead are the Citipati, also known as “Lords of the Graveyard”. They are depicted in the “bow and arrow”-posture (elbows and knees intertwined) which referes to the highest grade of the Outer Tantra. The monk who teaches in the “Institut für Tibet- und Buddhismuskunde”, Punchok Namgal, told me that there are seven tantric levels. 3 levels of the Outer, and 4 levels of the Inner Tantra. On the highest grade of the Inner Tantra, the skeletons would be depicted copulating.
