Merkaba
Temple of Visionary Art

First in Brazil · Chapada Diamantina · Iramaia - BA

Concept

Art as language.

Merkaba Temple is born from the need to create a space of contemplation where art is recognised as a tool for reconnecting with our own essence.

We believe art is a universal language, capable of reaching the unconscious, provoking deep questions and revealing new perceptions about life, the spirit and the world.

Purpose

Three paths that run through the temple.

A space of contemplation, art and collective consciousness, built to connect people, visions and experiences through beauty, ritual and presence.

01

Art as a portal

A living gallery of visionary art, installations and immersive experiences that expand perception and awaken new states of sensitivity. Here, art is not just display — it is language, crossing and transformation.

02

Space of contemplation and ritual

Ceremonies, meditations, experiences and gatherings devoted to reconnecting body, nature and consciousness. A place created to slow down, fall silent and remember the sacred present in human experience.

03

International hub of visionary art

A meeting point between artists, researchers and seekers from all over the world. The temple is born to strengthen visionary art in Brazil and build bridges between cultures, knowledge and new forms of consciousness.

Construction

Living architecture.

Merkaba Temple is born from the hands of the community. Built through bioconstruction and inspired by sacred geometry, every detail of the space unites art, architecture and consciousness in a structure made to contemplate and connect.

Surrounded by archaeological sites and rock paintings of the Chapada Diamantina, the temple emerges as the continuity of an ancestral language — the human need to transform perception and spirituality into art.

Gallery
