My center of gravity has always been transpersonal spirituality--an experiential, trans-religious theism which allows me to find and communicate an inner peace that transcends physical boundaries. It is a process which must be grasped in practice, intuitively; to acquire a merely theoretical understanding of mystical spirituality is to miss the entire point of it.
When I make a painting, I am not merely depicting an image, but creating an object with a cohesive, palpable energy field that affects the viewer on a visceral level, as well as a visual and intellectual one. The aesthetic goal is to directly communicate a transcendent experience, as opposed to simply illustrating an intellectual postulate. |
