CREATIVE PROCESS

Ideas are everywhere, in conversations, books, museums, beach walks and dreams. Translating ideas into shared images enables us to understand each other better and to express ourselves as individuals to our greater community.

 

the infinite mind

Moments of contemplation over coffee or stars helps manifest ideas in the mind, some would say in the third eye, “a ‘meta’ organ that consists of your mind and all of your senses working together as a larger, more powerful sensory organ,” Casey Kochmer, Opening the Third Eye. Magnesium Studio is about ideas and stories told through abstract surrealism. The studio harvests ideas, transforming them into images for others to learn from, react to, or simply enjoy. The process is contemplative where works are approached as meditations, blending intentional constructs with spontaneous composition of line and color to form symbolic images of depth and substance.


At an early age children are weaned on the marvelous, and later on they fail to retain sufficient virginity of mind to thoroughly enjoy fairy tales.
— Andre' Breton, Manifestoes of Surrealism
