The Seven Stages of the Heart is a collaboration between Bokja and Wyssem Nochi inspired by the Sufi journey toward inner awakening. Through seven sculptural chairs upholstered with Bokja assemblages, the collection reflects the seven spiritual stages of the heart, inviting a quiet contemplation of transformation, self-discovery, and transcendence.
In the Kingdom of the heart, seven stages there are: that the seeker of Truth must go, through them all. When the seventh stage, thy home is reached.
Hazrat Shah Maghsoud Sadegh Angha, The Light of Salvation
Bokja, in collaboration with Wyssem Nochi, presents The Seven Stages of the Heart. The collection is rooted in the Sufi teaching that in order to liberate oneself from the layers of ignorance, one must embark on a pilgrimage through seven stages of the heart. Seven unique iron chairs upholstered with Bokja assemblages have been designed by Wyssem Nochi. Each chair represents a stage in the journey to shed material and earthly desires.
