DESCRIPTION

The painting “Hall of Humanity” immerses one into a hallway where the future shines upon the present-day as memory. By seeing our current actions as a “history” to which humanity must respond, we can harness a new type of mental “time travel” which allows us, as individuals and as a collective, to futurecast our world. Within this semi-abstract painting, one can see humanity as painted in reddish-brown, while the surrounding corridor architecture is expressed through an illuminated black with lavender accents. This “Hall of Humanity” painting depicts the grand opportunity and responsibility of human life, using color, in ways that show “time” being used as a tool to awaken human compassion. This deepening of our consciousness helps us, as a humanity, to make more thoughtful decisions by which to actualize the fullness of joy through the betterment of all the world.

FROM THE COLLECTION

This piece is from the YOUtopia Collection, where each painting imagines an allegory of place that awakens profound consciousness. At the physical level, the paintings invite viewers into imagined improbable places that stir the soul with beauty, light, and ethereal materiality of form. At the metaphysical level, each place “paints” within one’s soul to awaken the infinite potentiality of humanity toward creating a better, more utopian world. This ultimately inspires the next evolution of the highest expression of you. This is the ideal self as seen through the allegory of architecture. This is YOUtopia.
