the art
My art is an escape into a different place of being. It’s very much a meditative experience enabling me to detach and view the world as a passive witness. The message in my work is to take time to stop, to look, to see—to really see. "oneseeing" is a reference to both me seeing (the individual one), and consciousness seeing (the collective oneness). Ultimately, they are the same—so when someone looks at my pictures and sees what I saw, there is a profound connection.
I very much like the way Bill Brandt explained it. “We look at a thing and believe we have seen it. And yet what we see is often only what our prejudices tell us to expect to see, or what our past experiences tell us should be seen, or what our desires want to see. Very rarely are we able to free our minds of thoughts and emotions and just see for the simple pleasure of seeing. And so long as we fail to do this, so long will the essence of things be hidden from us.”
