The Surface of Reality

 
 
 

An access point.

A portal

 

some would say, t0 what lies just beyond our perception of everyday reality. The worlds upon worlds that live within and without us. The ones waiting patiently for us to turn our faces in just the right direction so as to see them speaking their magic to us. Revealing the edges of our experience, the whisper of deeper knowings and the subtle but clear suggestion that there is more to see beyond The Surface of Reality.

 
 


The Surface of Reality

was discovered by accident as many of the most wondrous things are. One day in my small, dusty workshop there was a glimmer just out of the corner of my eye. That one peek was all it took though.

Once you cross over they say you can never go back… and so it appears to be true. Two realties merging: The past and the present working together to create an entirely new possibility born from both but also neither. 

One day it will have to be officially admitted that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.
— Salvador Dali

These new possibilities are born from carefully selected images out of paintings from previous centuries. They come into the present, finding themselves on canvas once again, given a new life in a radically different context allowing them to reimagine themselves.

From this new vantage point they look out at the world anew offering an invitation. An invitation to see them in a different light and thereby to see ourselves in a different light. An invitation to see beyond The Surface of Reality, beyond how things have been and will be. An invitation to the illusory nature of all that is us.

What I have shown you is reality. What you remember, that is the illusion
