URHAT, one of the three magical birds of Ancient Kuzhebar. The bird of Light and Joy has been  finished few days ago!

"Urhat" Pyrography on maple wood, carving. 40 x 60 cm

As the ancient kuzhebarian tales say Urhat has four eyes and one of those is a human one. With it the bird can see the world in the way human beeings do. Three other eyes of Urhat are looking into three different worlds: the spirit world, the world of living beeings and the "horhu"-world, the world of different living beeings. Ancient Kuzhebarina tales say that Urhat had tought people how to create magic sounds by using special devices, that is why it is always shown playing a flute, a jew..s harp or a ghost catcher.

KUAAMU – Kuzhebar Synergies, first models

Posted on September 1st, 2008 by jsurba.

You will find below the pictures of our first models, we hope you’ ll like them!
All your comments are welcome!
The ancient kuzhebarian symbol used in this ring depicts one of the three mystical birds of Ancient Kuzhebar. To learn more about these birds, visit this link: http://pyrography-design.com/YuliaSurbaDesign0Eng.htm.
This bird is playing here with the life of the human it visits (the ball).

An unique pendant! Its length goes from 6" to 16" (15 to 40 cm) and the pendant is 4" long (10 cm). It is actually a kind of a ghost keeper. Of course only for eatable ghosts!
That thing is that in Ancient Kuzhebar people didn’t separated ghosts in good and bad ones, but in eatable and not eatable. Kuzhebar people believed, when you eat a ghost you create a symbiosis with it. Through this symbiosis the human beeing and the ghost goes their evolution ways and support each other. More than that there were special musical rituals for eating ghosts by using a special wind musical instrument called "ghost catcher". You can see the video with similar kind of the ghost catcher here (reconstructed, developed and played by Nadishana):

This pendant is made from natural seeds and with an ancient kuzhebarian symbol. The symbol depicts the world picture with upper, middle and underworld and with the life tree, which grows trough all of them.

The symbol of this pendant depicts a balance of fourth elements: earth, water, air and fire.

The big ornament used for this pendant depicts three deathless creatures by creating a new world or reality. It’s 6" to 16" long and the pendant measures 2.8" to 4" (7 to 10 cm)

The symbol on this bracelet depicts the face of a deathless creature or godness who takes care about creativity and creative people.

Another necklace with the symbol of life-embryo on it, a symbol for birth and rebirth.

And another bracelet with another mystical bird of Ancient Kuzhebar on it ;)

And finally, the pendant with the symbol of a time traveller on it.

Magic Kui-Gorozh Eggs

Posted on March 17th, 2008 by jsurba.
Categories: Ancient Kuzhebar, design, pyrography.

All over the world exist old legends, tales and rituals connected with eggs. They are known like symbols of life and rebith. Also in a mokshan culture exist an interesting tale connected with an egg.

Mokshan people say that deep in the forest grows an ancient oak with a magic egg inside, the egg of Kui – Gorozh. Kui – Gorozh is a magic creature, a mixture of a snake and an owl, who can realise all wishes of his owner.
To become an owner of Kui – Gorozh one should find the Kui – Gorozh’ egg and brood it up.

Inspired by this tale I created some Kui – Gorozh’ eggs (of course with the help of Kuzhebarian Gods!!!).
Who know’s may be someone of you will be lucky to brood it out?
Do you want to try?

Good news! Our art prints and postcards are available!

Posted on February 15th, 2008 by jsurba.
Categories: Ancient Kuzhebar, design, foto, pyrography.

Now you can have your favorite atrtwork of Julia Surba on a postcard or like an art print. Postcards are two side printed and art prints are made on  tibetan hand made kahari-paper* and on cyperus papyrus**

kahari paper* is traditionally made from plant Canabis sativa, which grows high in Himalayan mountains. The paper is hand made and has a beautiful texture. Each piece of paper is unique, and the artprints look like hand painted on it.

Cyperus papyrus** also called Papyrus Sedge or Paper Reed is traditionally made from plant Cyperaceae, which grows in the wetter parts of Africa. Papyrus has a good recognisable texture and looks very impressive. Because of that the artprints looks lifelike on it.

All these stuff and much more is available in our new online shop, called KUZHEBAR STORE. You are welcome!
