Those acquainted with out-of-body experiences, borne out of deep meditation or catalyzed by psychedelic encounters, will find a familiar resonance in the aura this painting emanates. In these transcendental states, the gossamer veil separating us from an alternative version of ‘reality’ dissolves, unearthing a vista hitherto unseen.

In this newfound perspective, our internal landscape brims with shapes and entities, echoing the chromatic palette reminiscent of this painting. The energy of these uncharted realms ebbs and flows in patterns that, while distinct, remain ineffably enigmatic and elusively beyond the confines of human language.

The isometric design embedded within this artwork endeavors to serve as a window, offering viewers a tantalizing glimpse into this extraordinary perception of existence. It endeavors to transpose that ethereal reality onto the canvas, nudging the uninitiated closer to the edge of comprehension and inviting the familiar to reminisce their transcendent journeys.
