More quotes by Alex Grey
When artists give form to revelation, their art can advance, deepen and potentially transform the consciousness of their community.
Alex Grey
I think that that's why artists make art - it is difficult to put into words unless you are a poet. What it takes is being open to the flow of universal creativity. The Zen artists knew this.
Alex Grey
It was 1975. I had spent the year at the Boston Museum School doing some very bizarre performance works. The last one included going to the North Magnetic Pole and spending all of my money.
Alex Grey
Life is a wave of creative consciousness rippling through space and time that we have the honor of aesthetically surfing.
Alex Grey
Visionary art sure has played a vital role in my own soul's journey, and I would say it's been important for many artists and viewers throughout history. Visionary art is one of the primary ways that human contact with higher subtle dimensions gets translated into our communally shared physical dimension.
Alex Grey
When we gaze into the eyes of our beloved, we're staring into the eyes of a sacred mirror, and we recognize our oneness.
Alex Grey
Do solemnly swear to love, honor and obey my soul, my path to realization and relationship with a higher, deeper creative power, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, from now and forever more.
Alex Grey
Artists are most themselves when they are out of their minds, transcending the ego skirmishes of conceptual thought, and intuitively relinquishing control to the greater Creator
Alex Grey
The purpose of truly transcendent art is to express something you are not yet, but something that you can become.
Alex Grey
I felt I had dissolved into a pure energy state and become one with the magnetic field surrounding the earth
Alex Grey
Be an artist of consciousness. Your picture of reality is your most important creation. Make it powerfully profoundly beautiful.
Alex Grey
Realism and Naturalism rely mostly on the eye of the flesh. Abstract, conceptual and surrealistic art rely mostly on the eye of the mind. Great works of art rely on the eye of contemplation, the eye of the spirit.
Alex Grey
It is very easy to take for granted the phenomenon that we are each alive, but we must try not to.
Alex Grey
I would like my art to be about the possibility that each of us has to realize our connectedness with this great Spirit, whatever you want to name it, our inherent Buddha nature, Christ consciousness, primordial reality, the ground of being, God. Whether you want to go for a personal or impersonal perception of Spirit, is up to the individual.
Alex Grey
The good that binds us is Love, it comes from our Soul, it flows through our center, and connects us with everything.
Alex Grey
Folks who are alive today need to wake up and do what they can to stop abusing the planet, and find ways to preserve the web of life. That's where the soul is headed. It is time for us to become wounded healers.
Alex Grey
Love, consciousness, and creativity are the highest refinements of the cosmic evolutionary force.
Alex Grey
A work of visionary art can shock a person out of their normal thinking patterns and help them to see the world in a new way, helping them to transfigure their perception of reality. Obviously, it's only one of many potential catalysts to healing and transformation, but I think it can be a significant one.
Alex Grey
Share your presence with others, no boundaries, completely, openly, lovingly. Love is what makes us alive.
Alex Grey
An angel once told me, The inevitable consequence of love is the building of Temples.
