Alex Grey

BIO

Grey’s unique series of 21 life-sized paintings, the Sacred Mirrors, take the viewer on a journey toward their own divine nature by examining, in detail, the body, mind, and spirit. The Sacred Mirrors, present the physical and subtle anatomy of an individual in the context of cosmic, biological and technological evolution. Begun in 1979, the series took a period of ten years to complete. It was during this period that he developed his depictions of the human body that “x-ray” the multiple layers of reality, and reveal the interplay of anatomical and spiritual forces. After painting the Sacred Mirrors, he applied this multidimensional perspective to such archetypal human experiences as praying, meditation, kissing, copulating, pregnancy, birth, nursing and dying. Grey’s recent work has explored the subject of consciousness from the perspective of “universal beings” whose bodies are grids of fire, eyes and infinite galactic swirls.

Chor Boogie

BIO

aka LOVEMAN aka Joaquin Lamar Hailey ALLOVE...
As an artist of modern times, understanding himself and the world through color, defining the meaning of originality Chor Boogie is one of many masters that leads this pioneering craft of spray paint in its diverse art form.

Chor Boogie, born Jason Hailey in 1979, was raised in Oceanside California a small city by the sea with in San Diego county. He was handed a paint brush at the mere age of five from his kindergarten grade school teacher, started painting and fell in love with the creative process immediately, telling his teacher "When I grow up I am going to be an artist." Thus overtime Chor Boogie was exposed to the spray paint medium along with many other trials and tribulations that changed his life and formed this learning lesson we live in.

As a self made artist his drive and his passion fueled his study from renaissance artists such as Michelangelo, Da Vinci, and Rembrandt to more modern artists like Klimt, Van Gogh, Dali, combining a street culture of modern day spray paint "mentors" such as Phase2 and Vulcan, and in turn helped guide his lifestyle into a life it self.

A deep spiritual healing nearly a decade ago transformed his life and has had a major impact in his style of color therapy and techniques of creative innovativeness. Chor Boogie moved to San Francisco in 2007 and took the leap to pursue a full time career in art. His visionary works ignites the hearts and minds of the masses world wide. There is no color he does not use. He creates a wide range of forms pioneering his inverted can technique which slows down the pressure of the paint and creates dense, rich tones giving room for more detail on a broad perspective. Chor Boogie's dynamic range of artistic styles can manifest as soulful, deftly shaded portraits to color therapy, geometric elements adding up to half hidden faces, and a minds eye or two to encourage you to see internally and externally.

Needless to say, we are living in a very exciting time unprecedented in human civilization. Seven billion people currently live together on planet Earth and new challenges emerge daily on handling all the issues that arise with such a vast and diverse population. It is not difficult to see that our civilization as a whole is on a path towards its own demise with its uncontrolled polluting, rampant warring, unbalanced distribution of resources, and overall disharmony in relationship with each other and nature. We stand at a crossroads, a precipice, and are poised to make a major choice as a whole which will greatly determine our futures for ourselves and our offspring. It is our responsibility as humans to shift our relationship with the spirit of nature and restore our connectedness with all that is before we move beyond the point of no return and ensure our own destruction. This shift needs to occur within, deep within our consciousness, so that it can permeate throughout our bodies into our behaviors and life patterns so that the collective may be restored as it once was, in true resonance with the rest of life on this planet and the rest of life in the universe. I have discovered that the arts are perhaps the most powerful tool towards this goal. I have been deeply inspired by the creative offerings of others, through music, painting, dance, as well as by the art that surrounds us all the time in the form of forests, beaches, mountains, and rivers. Through the inspiration gathered from all these sources, I myself have developed the means to channel the current into art in the form of paintings and sculptural installation. The intention embedded within these works is to assist in the catalyzation of one’s core connection with the source, that which connects us all, to heal the schism between ourselves as humans and the world around us. Our strongest resource is inspiration, and through this means we have the power and ability to steer our society towards the path of love, beauty, and peaceful harmony which will ensure our survival on this wonderful planet we are so blessed to live upon.

George Geo Atherton

BIO

As an artist I plant and nurture the seeds of change. Art has the power to ignite mass movements of compassionate action, communicating complex concepts through aesthetic beauty and symbol. Creativity is the backbone of social transformation, and to that end I tag creative works with breadcrumbs that lead to (r)evolutionary information. Check out Datachurch.com for archives of activated content.

In 2007 I graduated from the Evergreen State College, where I joyfully pursued an independent curriculum in digital painting.
In 2008 I attended the Conceptart.org Revelations Intensive in Seattle, which completely elevated every aspect of my life.
In 2009 I journeyed to the icy foothills of the Himalayas where I became a Yoga teacher, creating art inspired by my studies.
In 2010 I joined the development team of Dreamcatcher.net, the social network for sharing dreams and transcendent experiences.

Through the practices of martial artistry, asana, pranayama, meditation, and lucid dreaming, I find the empowered center where creativity surges. Hare Om Tat Sat.

Autumn Skye Morrison

BIO

"My purpose is to create. In that process I find stillness and rhythm, my teacher and passion. With intention, I aim to share honesty and awakening; to celebrate this fantastic adventure; to inspire and be inspired. Each canvas takes me on a journey, and as my paintbrush follows, each time I am lead back to my center.

In this shifting and challenging Time, I feel a deep stirring, a potent blossoming of creativity. It is all around us, gaining momentum and strength; in our own lives, in those of our family and community, and in the collective experience. It is our divine duty to create and share inspiration, especially at this time of change. As we honor our own personal creativity, we contribute vitally to the whole. We inspire those around us to celebrate, we empower them to create, we manifest visual mirrors to the light, divinity, and potential of each viewer.

As in any art form, as we release judgment, silence our mind, breathe deep into the process, and find bliss in each step; we realize that we are boundlessly assisted in our authentic and heart-centered expression. We step out of the way. We realize that the Art is not born of us, but through us, and in this understanding we are humbled, yet profoundly empowered. Each creation is an offering: a positive reflection of ourselves and humanity, a celebration of evolving consciousness, an opportunity for healing and deepening, a vision of a bright future and Now.

May my paintings be a mirror, a reflection of your universal light, your human essence, and your timeless divinity."
