Because, because, because. Because I can write anything I want here. It’s liberating. In a way. I get tired and irritated with trying to form a thought or two with additions to my art online lately. So I think I’ll just randomly throw stuff out there. Like this piece. It was formed nearly unintentionally. In other words, I didn’t have a vision in mind for it.
The entire physical universe, as far as us primitive species knows, is composed of illusion according to ancient Vedic texts. The physical universe is called Maya, which means illusion. I recall listening to an interview with Linda Moulton Howe, the truly independent journalist who has spent her entire life journaling and researching UFO and alien phenomena. In the interview she noted three core abilities some alien species have over humans with regard to controlling the illusions of the physical universe. She said that they can create physically convincing holograms; they can effect invisibility (to the human eye); and they can manipulate space and time by controlling and manipulating the forces of gravity.
These postulates Howe spoke of about alien technology and mastery of the physical universe made total sense to me because of what I’d read long about about the ancient Vedas and the concept of Maya. If everything physical is an illusion, as quantum physics surely describes, then it would make complete sense that advanced species would be much more evolved in their paradigms and belief systems. To begin with, it would seem that beliefs held by conscious beings have an integral role in the formation of the infinite illusory realities they are capable of.
What does all this circumspection have to do with the art I made here? Because it arose from the random processes of my creativity while pursuing other conscious ideas I wanted to accomplish, I think it helps you take a step into some of the more spontaneous activities of how the natural world works, which is in a state of constant change. I managed to capture the frame of a certain state for you to glimpse.
I titled this piece Cave Flight because I imagined that the simple line construction seen at the bottom middle of the picture as a bird. It’s a bird that was painted eons ago by a cave artist on the rocky walls of a cave. You can see some of the black from fires previously burnt in the cave. It looks to me like the rocky textured areas of this depiction are like where a stalactite and a stalagmite met after thousands of years of forming. Behind this cave formation can be seen some paisley illustrations moving around—or suggesting moving around—in kaleidoscope fashion, ever changing with the fluxes and whims of the universe.
