EleMental

This extremely high detail artwork is one of my favorite editions from the series "The Alchemical Garden". Each artwork from the series tackles a piece of the puzzle in understanding deeply existential, philosophical, and spiritual concepts that all interrelate with one another. EleMental is the primordial state of the natural world and its harmony that is not bounded by a dogma or ritual. All dogmatic practices are seen as a constriction and a boundary that try to suffocate the growth of the primordial essence of pure mind. The architectural shelters of security have become our golden cages. Yet the human soul always seems to find its way outside of the boundaries that the egoistic thinking.
