HIGHER ART - Exploring Consciousness ...
|
Higher art has the potential to enrich the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual heart of art enthusiasts. This is because it explores deep, universal themes of existence and transcendence that can resonate with the core of our being. It provides a way to explore and express spiritual ideas that may be difficult to articulate in words alone, that seek to foster a sense of broader belonging in a purposeful cosmos.
Higher art can also challenge the mind, for it often presents complex ideas, symbolic representations, and thought provoking concepts that require deep presence, imagination and contemplation. Engaging with these works can expand our perspectives beyond the limited material lens, encourage us to consider the world in new and enriched ways, and lift us out of the ordinary and into the realm of possibility. Higher art can therefore, if allowed to be, a source of mystical inspiration and consciousness expansion, reminding us that life's beauty and eternal mysteries flow in, around, and through us.

She has used soft pastels on cotton paper for over 35 years to create a large body of highly original semi-abstract artworks. Many of these have been used to create unique and inspirational 'higher art' books designed to engage the mind and spirit on a deeply profound level. With a life-long interest in human nature, mysticism, and metaphysics, her creative radar seeks to discover, fathom, and interpret, the rhythmic flow of universal forces and their innate relationship with matter.
