Floatation

Oil On Canvas 30 x 40 inches 1987

Artist Note

A voyager sinks softly through liquid space deep within his ever expanding mind. In this recording of an internal journey the traditional boundaries of the skull have dissolved to reveal a fountain of new realities. What appears to be hair is actually a cascading flow of solar systems and nebulae pouring out into the void. This piece is a visual journal of the weightlessness we feel when we stop resisting the current of our own consciousness. I wanted to show that the mind is not a container but a gateway that is constantly birthing new multiverses through the power of thought and intent. As the traveler descends into the silent depths of his own spirit he discovers that the stars are not distant objects but part of his own biological and spiritual makeup. The liquid space around him is thick with the vibration of potential and the peace of total surrender to the infinite. It is a testament to the idea that the greatest explorations do not happen across the physical world but within the depths of our own inner light.
