 State(s) Of The Arts: (ink and gauche on fabriano paper : 990x700mm).  This chart-art piece investigates the physics of creativity  It compares, from a metaphysical perspective REACTIVE versus CREATIVE impulses. It contends reactive work emerges from the reptilian brain substituting controversy for originality. This is utilized  by the mammalian brain  compelled to conform to herd orthodoxy, adopting a language and  rituals for the purposes of inclusion and exclusion.  I contend these individuals encouraged by PostModernist obsessed art schools, are likened to a river flowing in the opposite direction of the flow of creativity, in order to differentiate from each other - the very definition of psychosis. The hope for art in the 21st Century emerges from cross-collaborations between science, metaphysics and art, contributing to the the expansion of the FIELD of Consciousness that we all participate in - a good example being the SciArt Center (NY) where my work has featured.
