“Often we hear the phrase ‘it’s only your imagination’, but what is imagination, really? The psychologist C. G. Jung defined it as the experience of an inner unknown territory historically perceived as the domain of the spirit. He wrote that spirit is that factor in the inner field of vision, which creates images and organizes them into a meaningful order. Each ensuing image is a progression and development, thus the spirit leads you somewhere. These paintings were created over the course of many months of receptivity to this inner world. By sharing this experience with society through art, the artist provides a point of departure and recognition for those who, willingly or unwillingly, are encountering the spiritual world. In this way the artist allows the spirit access to the shaping of the culture and offers people the possibility of an understanding of the spirit of the age in which they live.”
