About
Larbrela
Larbrela is an international Art Collective focused on supporting the emergence of Ecology.
It considers that Art must be meaningful and catalyse revelation, and that an Artist’s role is to provoke a shift in society.
Larbrela has been created in 2024 by a broader anonymous collective that, over 25 years of work on the psyche, has developed ways to enable the revelation within an Artist to go beyond Separation and the notion of the Monad fostered by modern-day beliefs, and instead receive direct inspiration to create Art, beyond aesthetics, in relationship to the whole, that through symbolism provokes transformation in the viewer.
This broader collective, which includes artists, scientists, and economists, is developing technologies, including a viable alternative to fossil fuel, a durable ecological battery, and water pollution remediation technologies, in collaboration with advanced laboratories, universities, and governments.
It is also conducting studies to forge the basis of a new Bioeconomy based upon the living, to ensure a legacy for future generations.
As part of a transpersonal movement, Larbrela does not find it relevant to focus on personal names.
Its name is an answer to the question:
“Où est l’arbre?”

About this mural
When people speak of the journey of humanity, they often speak of the descent of Adam and Eve, or the realization of the Buddha, or even the passage of Shiva, but they rarely speak about the Tree behind them all.
Whether it serves as a vehicle for the knowledge of separation, or for the transcendence of destruction, the Tree has played an essential role in the mythology of humanity as a facilitator of realization. According to some traditions, it holds the principle of verticality and fosters the elevation of consciousness.
In the modern world, humanity is experiencing a state of insatiability that fuels, through limited liability, greed over care, individuality over solidarity, pollution over health, art without meaning, and consumerism that carries neither essence nor orientation for the future generations.
The Dragon reflects the madness of the Mind, which, like artificial intelligence, does not know Truth because it cannot feel and does not sense its own emptiness.
The Tree, which in some myths enables, through an involution, a descent into separation and fragmentation, also serves as a vector for re-entry into a state of unity in connection to the whole.
While Trees can be perceived as separate entities, it is known that the interconnections formed via their roots enable them to live in a symbiotic society in reciprocity.
This moment of confrontation between the Dragon and the Tree symbolically marks a transition from a world based in individuality, voracity, and corruption into a world based upon integrity, solidarity and reconnection to Nature.
This transition may foster a shift from a focus on ever-fractalizing problems fomented by inference and opinion to a solution that unifies.
Ecology may then emerge, not in opposition to economic growth, but rather as a catalyst for new solutions that enable the well-being of future generations. A vibrant bio-economy may overcome decay and pollution through sustainable innovations.
This artwork has been created by Larbrela, a collective composed of artists, artisans, engineers, and researchers, some of whom have spent over 25 years studying ontology.
The collective focuses on creating solutions to enable the necessary transition to come.

The mural, which includes the church of Nagasaki, was painted by a Japanese artist from Hiroshima. It frames a message created by 7 children as a commentary on their future, the fact that money currently has no parity and therefore no values, and the understanding that water, as a essential facilitator of life, is a universal right.
