They're laughing at his kid's drawing, but it's absolutely brilliant.
that is only because some see a child's art as something laughable. but i deem it to be art, which is an expression. I agree the kid's drawing is such a beautiful art
could also be late Picasso
the guy makes jokes, and present things in a funny entertaining way, and it simply works.
If we are to believe that consciousness and its evolution is divine brilliance itself, then would it be too far to say that its evolution through a childs development is that brilliant itself. If that is true then all art created by children is this divine brilliance in its purest form?
@@williammckay1351 well, I'd say that the ideal artist is has a child-like mind combined with some level of technicity
So beautiful to witness someone living their greatest self stand on stage and present it to the world. This is the true power of vulnerability.
Indeed! and it says a lot about you to recognize his vulnerability and grace in sharing his Truth.
I love this man so much...
If festivals were about love they would be free.
@@smilinglynn9584 and it says a lot about you too to recognize Mark recognizing the vulnerability and grace. 🙂
Dear everyone. Laughing is something the universe really enjoys. So chill out.
Good point.
It depends on the intention of that laughter, to say any laughter at all regardless of situation or circumstance would be an over simplification.
Surreal Sunrise true, there will always be twisted people who laugh sadistically or mock people but it’s the less common kind of laughter.
although, this kind of laugh felt out of place, as if the audience didn't get what the speaker was trying to say.
Chris Sakel I did not perceive it that way but I guess we all perceive things differently. I felt like people responded to his humor and self derision and it feels like he wanted people to laugh.
The laughter by the crowd is absolutely a nervous laughter, due to his shedding light upon very serious things. I mostly side with him.
They are realizing who they truly are
I hate that when he said LSD the crowd laughs without realizing that LSD is no joke and he was talking serious about the impact that it can have in our consciousness
you gotta admit though, the story is pretty ridiculous :) That's why people are laughing. nothing wrong with laughing at the ridiculousness of someone's youthful adventures/misadventures. We all have them.
lsd is not ridiculous, mainstream strife is ridiculous, your laugher is not innocent because it results or stems from death, (innocent people's lives are destroyed because of irrational prohibition) lsd is not youthful misadventure, not eating lsd because of superstition is a misadventure and waste of life. We don't all have anything, all generalizations are false. and lsd is no joke, not that kind of joke anyways.
well, somebody has a stick up their ass...
how about you just calm down and learn to not take life so seriously huh?
it's perfectly possible to respect a drug and laugh at its absurdity in the same breath.
yea cos it made him crazy, just like you.
besides, the crowds laughter were innocent.
Art is an echo of the creative force that birthed the galaxies. creativity is the way that the cosmos evolves and communicates with itself.

James Garnett Nice✨💖🌚🦋🌏
Ji
Pretentious woo-woo
Love that quote!
TRUTH!
Alex rolling his eyes at the audience clapping at the mention of him donating the apples used in a demonstration rather than throwing them away really sums up his good nature for me. It just shows how he doesn't even see something like that as praise worthy, but rather just the given right thing to do. nice :)
Alex Grey on creativity: "Every creative act empowers every other creative act. The painter channels the creative force into the artifact and this artifact then becomes a battery ready to zap a viewer into a new way of seeing the world." And "once we understand things in a new way, it creates a new world." I love how he relates this to the evolution of human consciousness. Zap on, Alex! The awakening is upon us.
Thanks 🙏
Ducking amazing
This!!!!!
Profound
"I was severely deppressed" *crowd starts laughing hysterically*
I laugh when something resonates with me hard though
I thought this was a joke because the crowd was laughing so much and then it actually happened and I was floored...
I know. How horrible. Depression is real and the highest cause of suicide. Do they think suicide is funny. Sounds like a bunch of satanin assholes in the audience if you ask me.
I think you missed the humor. Think it like that. Guy shows a weird interest in death and weird stuff from an early age and people start being creeped out a bit. Then he says I was depressed and the laughter is that ahhh I get it moment.
Laffing is a coping mechanism. Much as when a dog is being beaten to death, it may grimace, often seen as if smiling, and wag it's tail. Horrible, but true. It depends on our background and how we are able to survive thru unbelievable pain and suffering. Children who are abused may use this skill to appease their tormentor. It is learned behavior on both parties. When someone laffs inappropriately, use compassion.
He does not talk out of ego, but out of the soul that each of us have. I think the frankness of that which he speaks may turn some off, for they have simply not explored that aspect of reality. It is quite a profound truth to accept and witness, and I think Alex Grey has shared something to humanity that is not ready to be accepted. Perhaps in a couple of generations, humans will appreciate Alex Grey for that which he has contributed to humanity.
matthew berry He most definitely talks out of ego. Everything he does is extremely ego centric. He's an artist.
how so?
I don't see him talking about himself or making a bunch of self portraits?
Then you weren't watching. Also if you own his book you would know he has a million self portraits. Just calling it like I see it
+matthew berry See if you can order a poster of his without the giant white border with his name plastered along the bottom of it in large type..
This is literally the type of things I see on psychedelics. Im shook that he brings these visuals to the material world.
the fact that his art speaks to the universally shared nature of the psychedelic experience is in and of itself a strong testament to the interconnectedness of all living beings
Well he did start his artistic journey at age 5
Was introduced to him through Tool.
Such a distinctive art style, you know an Alex Grey art when you see it.
Legendary talk.
🌟 Well said, I agree!
*WOW*. holy shit...I'm honestly kind of in shock right now. I just paused the video at *15:53*. About 4 years ago, I had the most awe-inspiring, poignant, mysterious, meaningful experience of my entire life. I had taken 5 grams of psilocybin mushrooms. About 1 hour into the experience, with eyes closed, I saw *_THIS_* same exact image...but in full 3D(it seemed to go into infinity). I'm not even kidding. I saw the *_exact_* same scene. Yet, this is the first time I've ever seen Alex's painting. I didn't even _know_ of Alex until yesterday. I'm seriously in shock. Did he and I see the same thing?? He said that painting was inspired by an Ayahuasca vision. I don't even know _what_ to think right now......
There have been other reports of similar occurences. There really is true substance to alex's work, his transfer of that information into our reality is pretty accurate.
I've had visuals like that too. I wouldn't take too much away from it though, our understanding of how psychedelics work is so limited to draw any meaningful conclusions.
Seems that certain people can come out of trips believing all sorts of things..
avedic Was it also rotating up and then horizontally in infinite rotating loops?
I've had very very similar ones too, beautiful experience wich i am very thankfull for
i think the brain holds onto images very well on a subconscious level. you may have seen the tool album cover at some point, maybe not. part of me is intrigued with the idea of a mass consciousness, that hallucinogenics bring us to some sort of shared cloud / zone. but i'm also curious if our brains are just wired similarly enough to produce the ballpark-same images / effects when we hallucinate. i think the universe winks at me enough when i ask it questions for there to be some sort of greater program.
Alex Grey is one very cool cat.
cat?
Ammuanciatrai yes, cat
You're a cool cat.
Yes he is.😂😂😂 I only clicked on this guy 'cause he looked like Geralt of Rivia.
Love his name
Such a beautiful, brave, gentle, compassionate and wise man. May we see. May we listen. May we grow in conciousness.
This was absolutely fascinating. The way he was overcome with emotion at some points during the talk, especially when talking about one of the visions he had with his wife, about what’s really real, about all of us being connected through love with God, in God through love. This is a person who has really experienced God, it seems.
He had a real burning bush experience it seems.
Absolutely correct Renata Vianna
LSD helps
I just don’t see him that way. I see a man who figured out how to make a comfortable living pedaling a product extracted from the mind of his followers back to his followers. He is brilliant.
I love that he's able to reach out to a crowd that doesn't see themselves as "sophisticated artsy types" and take them seriously. Someone complained here about the audience but in truth this is who he's trying to reach. He wants to reach everyday people with what he believes to be an important message and he knows they can grasp the things he wants to relate. If not for the common person then who is art for? without the common man art has no value.
A great artist and an interesting thinker.
And divine being 💕
Agree! 💕
hi micah
15:55 - Tool 10,000 Days album is an artistic masterpiece.
It's amazing that he was able to explain each painting with so few words. I've been to his church CoSM in the Hudson Valley, and it is indeed a trippy place with a mushroom cafe (unfortunately it does not sell mushroom) to boot. Seeing his art up close, you realize the amount of work that goes into each piece. They provide a refreshing contrast to all the postmodern art that purposely shy away from meaning. Lastly, I love this idea that artists must bear witness to the transcendent and show the world what they see.
"A Cell in The Body of God." Genius!
Autumn Martino Yes 🦋🌏✨
in the jewish religion, jews believe we are all small lights in the synapsis of G-d...sounds legit!
“A cell in the body of God.
The light is love.
& it connected us all.”
Alex Grey
Deeply profound, one world, one people.
"Every creative act empowers every other creative act."
I strongly agree with this. I even read a book called Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert which mentions and proves this with real life examples. If you're having writers block, create something else and everything would start flowing again.
OMG! I finally found it. The voice @ 13:05.. the voice from the psytrance track: Gold - by Captain Hook. "Planetary conciousness becomes cosmic conciousness through human conciousness"
I can't believe the track has Alex Grey's voice. It is truly magical and probably my hook into psytrance world. Thanks Grey 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Such a killer track! Long live the Captain
Why is everyone laughing? He really meant his stuff...
Although I truly do enjoy Alex Grey, and I love is work - I did find certain parts humorous as well. But I think some parts were meant for a bit of humour and lightheartedness. Another part is some of what he says is so absurd (not sure if this is the word I'm looking for, but I don't mean it in a negative way), that it comes to a sort of shock which makes the audience a bit of unsure of how to react... And I think it sort of comes through with laugher hah
Grey seemed to get a kick out of his earlier work too. He said he "was depressed" and later uses a graph that has his newer work at the pinnacle. Perhaps he wanted to show his evolution? Not everyone starts out at genius level.
Why is it such a problem? It's possible to have a sense of humour about things without necessarily laughing down at them. You might also notice he got a standing ovation from the audience!
Fabricio Giampietro It seemed to me they mostly laughed (the adolescent titter) at the references to his pieces that were envisioned during psychedelic experiences. I sometimes feel that those who haven't done psychedelics think the validity of those experiences of less value than transcendent experiences in "reality." As Bob Marley said, "He who feels it, knows it."
I met Alex and Allyson and even posed for a couple of his energy drawing classes. They are the real deal. Originators. Visionary.
because at some points he is being humorous
"The painter channels the creative force into the artifact" Yes!
The painter channels himself into the artifact. Subject and object become one.
Thank you for sharing this work and yourselves in it. I really enjoyed the stories and verbal presentation, not being well initiated in visual arts but honestly marriages and music were everywhere.
This has revitalized my relationship with being a visioanry artist. Sometimes I can get down on myself thinking it dosn't matter because people don't appreciate it, but this talk at this time was a divine blessing in itself, much love Mr.Grey!
Nearly cried at the end. Beautiful visionary. I need to create art again...
Yes, you do!
I hope you enjoy it
I nearly cried as well.
Me too
I hope you're enjoying having art :)
keep going ~ spiral out
+Ultros Tako yeah pushit :D
Hot Dog Lost Fog here I am doing that
@Hot Dog Lost Fog I cannot help but hear Maynad singing the first sentence :)
Lateralus!
@@MrShabz117 I was waiting so eagerly for him to mention tool lol.
I remember 6 months ago I randomly stumbled upon one of his books at my friend’s house. I just could not put the book down. His art just touched me in a way that I had to hold back tears. Such a gifted and talented artist. I’m so happy for his and his family’s existence
People laugh when uncomfortable. Doesn’t mean it didn’t impact them :)
Alex is such an inspirational spiritual artist… I’m grateful he’s existed in our lifetime 💕❤️💕
Alex Grey is one of my heroes. As an artist, he has a huge influence on me.
Vince SC He is an influence to all artists
Where can your art be seen?
same same. in some way.
we're supposed to see the
same things. just look at it.
This powerful quote is from the end of the video, spread it to help art evolve our consciousness!
"Art is an echo of the creative force that birthed the galaxies. Creativity is the way that the cosmos evolves and communicates with itself. The great uplifting of humanity, beyond its self destruction, is the redemptive mission of art."
- Alex Grey (Visionary Artist)

This is exactly the part that I just replayed over and over to pull this quote out. I should have just waited till I read your comment!
I can't agree with this more. This is what we need.
I have some of his beautiful artwork adorning the walls of my acupuncture clinic. Patients often comment on how they could stare at them for hours, finding something new each visit.
LSD is a weird one - My soul, my heart, my mind was opened up to the infinite love and creativity of the universe, and for that I am forever grateful. But the enhanced empathy also allowed for a greater realisation of all the terrible things that are weighing the world down with hate and negativity.
Alex & Allyson Grey are humble, relatable, ingenious, artistic *visionaries* RIGHT HERE in our own time. I feel lucky to be alive as they bless this earth.
I was involved in an zoom session with Alex and his wife last Friday, A lovely and fascinating pair of humans. 🙏🏼
What was that like? That's fascinating!
@@rosequartz4102 really great, it's always great to be in company of others that work for the same purpose. 😊
This is by far the most inspiring video I've ever friggin seen.. I always loved his work but this just blew my mind!
As an artist with severe mental health issues and a huge passion for spirituality, I feel so invigorated and inspired to create now 🖤 ughhh love him
I can agree with the statement on condition that we all agree that unified world doesn't mean uniform nation, because God created us in such a beautiful variety of nations, races, languages and cultures that we must highly cherish and enjoy and, definitely preserve as a Divine Purpose.
his art is unbelievable
I had the privilege of seeing Alex in person when he came to Australia on a speaking tour. He is such a humble, beautiful guy . No doubt he has been an inspiration to many, including myself.
The way he responds to the standing ovation at the end... what a sweetheart
❤️🖌️🎨"Art, Music and Love." Yes, please. A path to a beautiful world.❤️🖌️🎨
It is many years since Alex Grey gave this Ted Talk. His, and his wife Allison’s art, explained from his spiritual journey perspective.. has connected many spiritual journeys together. Indeed creativity is a longing in our souls, indeed the recognition of the longing to respect, love and create together is the sacred journey. Bravo Alex and Allison for your commitment to sharing your love in and thru art!
Best ted talk ever. i am now gonna believe in myself and mission and will start creating and producing Electronic Techno.
How's it going so far?
Soundcloud?
Yeah, how is it going? And don,ou have soundcloud? :)
Yes! Blessings to you! :)
Excellent speech. As given by Geralt of Rivia.
Geralt has a much nicer voice, Alex Grey sounds creepy when he speaks.
MsDancingpants He's a super nice person though.
His wife, Allison's art is amazing also.
I'm crying. He is so bold and open and contemplative and all in the most inspiring, life giving way possible. I honor you, Mister Alex Grey. Thank you for your existence 🧬🦋✨💮
He makes more sense than anyone I've heard from in my lifetime.
Hes like Mr Rogers but on shrooms. I love it
Paganism ! Rituals from Masons and the enlightened ones aka the Illuminati.
They will tell you that Lucifer means the holder of the light because he used to hold a light . So be careful !
God is not a concept . God is Himself just as sure as he made you yourself and not a concept . God Consciousness as he uses it is the Idea of Knowing everything ..... When you and I both know in our heart of hearts that we weren't ment to know everything . Now God Consciousness in terms of God always being on the fore front of your mind and consciousness while making decisions is Good .
Well thankyou for reading anyway . I know people have their beliefs not trying to change yours but I will tell you what I know .... Love and Respect Peace and God Bless ~1~
I love hearing Alex Grey speak, always heartwarming and inspiring.
You sound like a hater. You know who is also a hater? Satan.
This man is one of the most profound geniuses, not just of his own time but of a long long long time. Perhaps even thousands of years.
I am deeply grateful for Alex and Allison Grey's contributions to art, awareness of the essential nature of life; the connection between man, earth/nature, Kosmos, and Great Spirit.
We have all been gifted with love and awareness by Alex and Allison at a time when society and government are lost and confused about morals, what's ultimately important, religion, mythology, spirituality, and much more... Fortunately, because of how symbols work, anyone looking at their art or this presentation, regardless of the judgments they hold, will be seeded with transformative wisdom that will inspire awareness and growth within when they are ready to realize themselves in relationship to the Grand Mystery of life and Love.
My Love and Blessings to you Alex, Allison, and family.
Love and chi,
Paul Chek
Very well said. 💗
Yes well said
Brilliant and beautiful post my unknown friend. join us as we do our little bit using our music and messages to shine some light in twisted, challenging and upside down times. TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER
WELL SAID My feelings, knowings and belief, exactly. They are a sacred couple who give us a path for a sustainable future!
I like you way better than Alex. Your medicine is so real and works, his medicine is questionable. I think Alex is a trendy flake.
I understand Alex Grey so much better now. I can see that he really followed his heart and listened to his soul and delved deep into his being to arrive where he’s at. He is a prophet. We are all prophets. Our job to channel our true selves and let the world feel your passion.
That Net of Being artwork is mind blowing.
I just want to take a moment to acknowledge the drawings he created at various stages of his life; that skeleton is wildly good for a kindergartner! And doing staunch, anatomical realism at age 17? You can tell this guy has been hard working and art driven all his life tbh. You can really see the foundation that led to the brilliant works that he'd go on to produce...
"The great uplifting of humanity beyond its self-destruction is the redemptive mission of art." Finally. I now understand how being an artist can be about a higher calling rather than an exercise in vanity. What a succinct and intelligent speech.
15:22 super interesting how the evolution of his own art as an artist directly mirrors his growth and evolutions of his state of mind as a human
Before I clicked on this. I said "WHATTTT no way.... my man" then I clicked on the video and instantly liked it. I did a project on him. Inspirational.
It brings me joy seeing a younger soul accept the passion for visionary art and listening to this visionary artist. I hope your life is full of good energy and movement. May you live well.
Our lives are each an expression of art, known or not, we paint and weave shared images, sadly, mostly bitter, lonely, lost souls. Alex is a modern prophet transcending our blind, corrupt, deconstructionist illusion of reality. Hard for myopic rationalist to swallow, but Love is the foundation of everything.
Preach!
Beautiful!
On "lost souls": The only way to find your soul is to first be willing to part with what you think it is... "I am not my body, I am not my mind, I am not even an I"
My husband talked about this kind of manifested relationship between human and spirit as "metaphysical technology," which has been a guiding force in my life. Thanks for this uniquely inspiring conversation.
What an utterly delightful human.
Why aren't so many more people like this awesome cat?
The sacred mushroom opened the door, years later the kundalini burnt the door and the house to the ground. I remain grateful to this day. I woke up even though the process of awakening is ongoing. Hence the love of Alex Grey and his work. What ever the means Alex Grey speaks to me through art as he does to mankind. What a beautiful manifestation of the absolute.
Aloha from Kaua'i where I once taught art. I taught art in Detroit, and it was a middle school student who asked me about your art and gave me one of your books for my birthday! Stay cosmic my friend! Your critics are like dry seedlings that haven't evolved yet. Blessings to your ohana braddah!
This went way beyond the profound. I think your into the "Pudding". Thanks and congratulations!
At 13:44 how true his vision is here. He saw our desperate world needing our help and what governments should have been wise enough to see and prevent. Now the state of our Earth and our natural environments, energy, species, in extreme peril now becoming daily news. His art is truly living in flow and spirit and he's made me want to pick up my paints again after not creating for so many years,and re engage with myself and spirit and be grateful for the creativity I have inside of me since I was a little girl, thankyou.
Maynard totally gets it. Tool embodies these paintings in all of their music. A perfect pairing. Magical.
Hey!! Random person that I will never meet.. I truly hope that you will find happiness in life. If you're reading this, just know that you and I are different versions of the same higher being, experiencing itself through both you and I. You are loved endlessly and the universe has your back. Be patient and continue to spread the love :)
Hi, I see you too 😊 Keep sharing the love!
life is divine chaos, love you too
I see you too. )
namaste!!
Love you. Thank you. Wow.
Beautiful. Beauty in full. Grey's journey is so beautiful. A truly extraordinary human being.
I love him! 🍎He is truly immersed in art and spirituality.
He and his wife are so kind and have created such an incredible space at Chapel of the Sacred Mirrors (CoSM)
I hope I can get back there soon.
Love and unity is the ultimate creativity that becomes transcendental.
Finding the gray in polarity; the peace and oneness
Is my wish for all who are here.
This has given me a much much better view on Alex. And I already Loved him to begin with............
Exactly the same for me.
Thank You, as an inspired massage therapist your artistic style gave me knowledge from a recognizable reference, from with in myself, to see all people as more than a body. Your detailed first hand realizations in this TED are deeply appreciated now more than ever.
This ball of light that Alex speaks of is exactly what I witnessed when I did a past life regression. I was first guided to my birth, i didn’t see a baby as such, just a ball of light, complete, full of positive energy, full of love. It gave me a lot of peace.
Fantastic to hear Alex speak of the evolution and meaning of his art. I have been a fan for a long time. I also have a story to share: My grandmother was very psychically tuned. She also loved Alex Gray's work. I gifted her a signed Alex Gray print she that she kept on her living room wall. It's Theolo(?) seen at 14:17. My grandmother was into yoga, meditation and could astral project. So was a fitting piece for her. After her death the house had burned down. Everything in the house ruined, the print charred and melted plastic (from the frame we bought for it). But Alex's signature (w/ triangle and third eye symbol) was left untouched. I took it as a sign from her that things would be OK. Later we learned through a psychic medium that she burned the house down 'herself' to help the family move on (not to lament over material things). Anyways, thank you Alex for sharing your gifts and your message. Was beautiful to see how 'Theolo' fit in the evolution of your work. And you are right. It's time to heal the planet. To do that I think we need to help one another heal first.
Can you imagine, being able to actually draw the images you have seen in your head, perfectly.
These are probably flashes of Alex Grey mind, influenced by his family and their love. ♥
Alex Grey is who I aspire to be in regards to creativity and lack of inhibition! His art is also what I have been longing to create!
It is an inspirational talk for all forms of art. We must bold and adventurous.
OUTSTANDING Creativity and Cosmology communication. Thank you!
Alex Grey is my favorite artist. I would not be where I am today without his inspiration. Art evolves consciousness. Consciousness evolves beliefs. Beliefs create culture. Culture constructs civilization. In my most spiritual experiences I have come into contact with my Self and God (which are the same) and I try to communicate these experiences with my art. I feel this is the most important duty of the artist - To synthesize your experiences into a cohesive creation and inspire others to believe that anything is possible.
Thank you, Alex, for sharing some of the most connected thought and art I have ever seen.
So awesome. Thank you Alex and Allison Grey for creating and living such a unique and wonderful life and body of work.
Evolution through love to unity consciousness portrayed beautifully.
Oh my GOD! Alex you have been the inspiration to build Bayon! One of the temples of Angkor Wat in Cambodia!
Never thought I’d say this about a ted talk but this was beautiful to watch
That was very inspiring, My path becomes clearer , more focused and evident.
You can only love Alex’s enthusiastic, calm delivery.
A&A Grey...they are true gifts to this World. ❤️
I’m a sculptor I absolutely love this! You guys are amazing! It’s so wonderful to see art in this light, driven by higher consciousness. You’ve inspired me to get into my studio this afternoon. 💗
What a dude. To be humerous abt thr most serious situations in his life and effortless is his explination of his complex peices of work
“Art is an echo of the creative force that birthed the galaxies.” I hold you in my heart, then hands to heart, then hands out and open, palms up, toward the Sun. Namaste and thank you.
What an inspiring poet. I love the way you use your words
He is the greatest genious I have ever seen, his speach made my spirit cry. It's so beautiful.
What a coherent message you deliver Mr. Grey. Yet, I see the world as a whole not mature for it. Whenever one feels confused one should look into your artworks and see and understand what is there.
Alex and Allison are precious, important humans. I love them so much.
i love the quote “festival culture wages peace in the world” through art music and love , very accurate
What a beautiful person. This is the hardest topic to talk about, and it's even hardest to create an art which reflect that vision. They made visible what's invisible. You have my total esteem!
There’s a lot of potential in psychedelics, I can’t wait to try any of them mushrooms specifically but it’s just so hard to find a reliable source over here, I’ll be glad if anyone can be of help
One of the most peaceful experience I've ever had..I really need to get my hands on some DMT
it so much easier to get over anxiety and depression with psychedelics
@@JuicyLife3
I really think it's not advisable to start your first trip with DMT,it might scare you off
@big stepper
The moment you started feeling this way you already having a bad trip..
Try not to think about it that way
@Jeffrey Hart
pls how do I find him?
Is it on IG?
I feel the same about my purpose! Bringing the dark and light together, balancing on that edge, playing in the in between...
this is phennomenal !! Thank you so much Alex Grey for reminding us of the Grey and its importance !
I absolutely love and appreciate this man and his life and his wife and everything they have created is a complete blessing and communication from the universe that literally raises vibrations just from the subjective perception and interpretation of this artwork! absolutely profound and Truly inspiring me to get back into my artwork and put down these video games! I am so grateful for these transcendent beings who aspire to attain the cosmic soul. I hope one day I can meet these radiant Grey's and everyone else who aligns with their nature. Namaste
Alex Grey is an amazing artist, I love his art. Alex Grey has inspired me to express my creativity through historical, mythological and surreal artwork, I am thankful for his visions.
Boundless love for this guy- this utter genius!
Fearless exploration into the unknown. Amazing that he is able to speak.
