Image I: In a deep meditative state, the aspiring godform wills itself into a merger with a 4th dimensional daemon thus entering the linear timestream of humanity. While I was making this, I started thinking about how the background sculpture layer resembles the surrealist inner workings of a cosmic clock. The surrounding blackness represents the 4th dimensional entities that hold our world together, are manipulated by sorcery, and can be contacted in a liminal state.
Image II: If you look dead center in the picture, you see the time daemon wearing a tie and sitting on a throne with smoke dissipating around it. It is representative of the incredible level of order that holds together a modern urban center. It is a teacher. It is also important to note that the 5thdimensional godform has vanished, wholly immersed in the linear time stream and largely unaware of his true limitless nature during the process. There is a level of amnesia necessary in learning these 3rd dimensional lesson plans after all. Also fascinating to note that despite being in what many would consider hell, it’s actually a place of great beauty reflected in the piercing blue sky that colors the piece.
Image III: Here we see the purpose in time immersion exercises such as these. The 5th dimensional godform has now gained the discipline necessary to contort itself into a city, in much the same manner as our god, the living sun. As I was meditating just after creating this piece, I was contemplating the seemingly dark nature of the themes when looked at through a lens of conventional spiritual thought. As I was considering why a godform would desire to merge with a time daemon the word “wisdom” spontaneously popped into my head. And there you have it. Most spiritual teachings are based around the idea that life is suffering and the payoff is in the higher realms. It is “wisdom” that is gained by the often tedious or painful exercises in ordered restraint given to us by the flesh. The godform can now become a living city in whatever new dimensions it creates as a divine artist. This goes right in tandem with lucid dreams I’ve been having for years. Dreams where I am not an inhabitant in a lucid dream city, but rather the entire city itself.
This would be the point where I mention that all of the spiritual themes pervading this series were completely unintended by me while I was creating them making this a work of channeled art, forged by the 3rd, 4th, and 5th dimensional aspects of myself working in tandem.
