Oceania My Secret Place Print

I expressed my most personal, sincere, emotional, spiritual, transcendental, metaphysical, and psychedelic perception of the nature I had come across upon my arrival in North East Queensland, Australia, sitting in the tropical region. As an artist, free from my own and expectations of others, taken out of my comfort zone, and the familiarity of the known and confronted with new circumstances and conditions, I opened the door wide to my inner self. This time, free from opinions, as if reborn, wishing to give me with childlike purity and the instant aroma of the scene I was observing and experiencing. In a deep trance of the experience, I saw with my inner eyes the ocean intertwined with the sky over the horizon, the perpetual motion of energy diffusing and condensing, the photons moving in an orderly flow and rhythm, time melting as if in a Dali’s painting. I saw the past, the future, and eternity in the trillions of shimmering droplets of the ocean/water. I was overwhelmed with an inexplicable fear that this feeling would disappear in the present, that I would lose the newly discovered kaleidoscope of the conscious and completely experienced, magnificent gratitude.
