An artist’s creation can be a manifestation of spirit. We all share in this spirit when we are deeply moved by a work of art. We channel the artist’s own divine experience, which grabs a hold of the universally fundamental point in our human soul. In this way, art is a portal through which the holy light of inspiration travels from artist to viewer. It acts as a mediator between the spiritual realms and our every day functions, tapping our subconscious with extraordinary glimpses of what we are capable of. Art needs to give unselfishly to the viewer opening up an appreciation for life with the aesthetics of beauty and the message of truth. We live in a world that has denied an essential facet of the human mind for far too long. To realize our true existence, not only as individuals, but as humankind, we must reincorporate spirituality and loving kindness into our lives and interconnect it with our sciences, cultures and social systems.
The brilliance of our experience on this world is life itself. Every human being, despite nationality, socio-political rank, sex, religious orientation or lack thereof, has the potential to achieve Enlightenment. We all have the ability to discover the expanding universe within ourselves and to become one with the ultimate light of the Absolute. Art is an essential vehicle for transcendence, both in describing this potential and in illuminating the visions and possibilities of the third eye. I want my work to reflect the unfaltering wonder of life and consciousness, and to inspire others with similar experiences to pursue the ultimate unity through openness and compassion on their own paths.
I depict my journey through my art, referencing archetypes, spiritual symbolism, my own meditation and vision imagery in an effort to expand beyond myself and to touch the universal elements that exist within all of us. I want to reopen our mind’s thirst for beauty and transcendence. Through imagery and the intricate nature of my work, I want to spark the fire that lies dormant in so many of us and to cast open the closed doors of the heart. Beauty, truth and goodness are available to everyone and can be found everywhere in our world, even amidst the horrors and tragedies of today. We often fail to see that which is right next to us and do not realize what is already inherent in our own being. I want my art to point out the glorious nature of all that is around us and very importantly, all the glory and pure joy that is alive within us as well.
