Unlike a symbol, this image can be described as an allegory of human consciousness, “an allegorical tableau of human existence which is theatrically framed in a New York City urban environment.”
“What we get are fragments of reality, we can’t tell which is the correct image and which is reversed, just like the mirror. The retina reverses perception, so we live in a world of doubling and reversal.” The meaning of the fragmentation is unidentifiable because it’s constantly becoming another fragment as consciousness attempts to perceive it further. “So we’re now in a world of time, fragmentation, and enigma. It’s a theatrical space which represents life. We need the theater to frame things and we need art to understand them better.”
In this image, graphic psychedelic edges frame the center stage of the human drama, representing human experience which reaches beyond the self through the resonance between green, purple, and blue toward the higher vibrations of psychedelic reality.
This visionary experimental series — fusing analog and digital mediums — focuses on singular images which cross multiple structural, chromatic, and psychic planes of attunement. By digitally folding and unfolding the image, the process allows viewers the opportunity to have deeper and more refined optical experiences of Nature and urban architecture as sacred realities. The auratic colors, emergence of meditative geometry, and crystalized primal vibrations may help open the viewer’s "third eye" by uncovering a living connection between consciousness and waves of complex solar energies.
