The Creative Process

 

Concepts are abstract, yet they have many shapes and are expressed in verbal and artistic languages and religions.
 

Imagery can be experienced in its passive mode as a dream or hallucination, and in an active mode, by directing intention into the psychedelic realm of the mental inner space forming images.

​

Conceptual Imagery is a stream of consciousness created by unfolding concepts through a meditative intention, released into imagery. The concept transforms into a visual symbol  that holds a narrative in a psychedelic or artistic space.

​

Painting with two points of view is a statement corresponding with the classic tradition of compositions that relates to objects as seen through a window frame, showing a material world affected by gravity. Since conceptual imagery is free from the laws of gravity yet the pictorial format is viewed through a frame, the classical paradigm relating to set directions is challenged by the asymmetrical reflections, creating an artistic space that exposes a twofold meaning to each scene.     

 

The images you see below are different aspects of the concept of parallelism: ‘Parallel Existences’ or ‘Parallel Realities’ which one can be conscious of and experience through daily life. The human consciousness has a blind spot attached to a paradigm that prevents seeing some aspects hiding in its many different angles. Nurit Shany’s art calls you to relate to reality as a many fold expression and to the human being as capable of being aware of more than the surface of existence. The double angle that sums up to a harmonious composition of a reflection reveals a visual blind spot that awakens when looking at objects in an upside-down position, arising a sense of a paradigm shift when aware of the two points of view.
