"Debería existir una pintura totalmente libre de la dependencia de la figura -el objeto- que, como la música, no ilustra nada, no cuenta una historia y no lanza un mito. Esa pintura se contenta con evocar los reinos incomunicables del espíritu, donde el sueño se convierte en pensamiento, donde el trazo se convierte en existencia. "

Michel Seuphor

"from the chest"

agreeing with and quoting Chandralekha

“My work is about linking inner and outer spaces. We live in the body without understanding its vital parts and points and without the knowledge of how to bridge the inner-outer divide.”

A Subtle Understanding of Waking Perception

This book has been the work and effort of many friends and myself for a a couple of years and finally we have reached the end product to be shared!!!!
It is a sort of diary of two months spent around Kerala in South India.
I wanted to understand and experience nature through intuition, healing and perception.. and let that be the guidance for creation.
The book includes paintings, personal notes, a preface by Dr. Robert Svoboda (http://www.drsvoboda.com/), an essay by sociologist Roland Playle, an interview with naturalist and botanist Anand Gopinath and it has been beautifully designed by Maru Calva (http://marucalva.com/) and printed thanks to the support of Antonio Arevalo at ARGO.
Translation was made by Clara Marin and a lot of advice, help and support from Fede Schott (http://hi-lo-fi.com/, http://federicoschott.com/)
Some books that were influencing my thoughts at the time of creation were:
-Metamorphosis of Plants, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
-The Secret Teachings of Plants, Stephen Harrod Buhner
-Hinduism and Ecology, Ranchor Prime
-The Only World We've Got, Paul Shepard

At the moment the book can be bought through me, or at Spoonbill and Sugartown books in Brooklyn, NY.
Thank you for your support!
