New work coming soon.
THE UNBYGONE
or: One Artist’s Humble Revolt Against the Tyranny of Progress
I essay to make contact with the sublime, the numinous, the mysterium tremendum. This is especially urgent now in an era of shallow cleverness, technology-drunk speed, scientism, blind progress, wing-clipping hyper-reason, fundamentalist secularity, and general alienation from the earth. As an artist I aim to overthrow, or at least wildly rattle, what Rene Guenon called the “reign of quantity.” May we all remember Mahatma Marley of Trenchtown, Jamaica who once sang: “There is a natural mystic blowing through the air.”
