I am interested in shamanism and its influence on visionary artists. I consider myself to be a visionary artist ~ my work is inspired by my dreams and visions, usually having to do with spiritual ideas and the interpretation of the natural world around me.
A visionary artist attempts to translate an encounter with a supernatural other; a personal experience of an altered state whether through meditation, shamanic journey’s, or ingesting a hallucinogenic substance. Visionaries seek to transcend the ordinary world and portray non-ordinary reality artistically.
I would like to explore the themes of mystical and spiritual ideas as an artist in this blog. Our westernized culture of personality has become increasingly polarized; I feel it is important to retain our sensitivity to individual transformation through the curation of our soul life. When an individual transfigures their connectivity to soul, other and the natural world ~ our splintered society can heal itself. We can become our own best selves.
