Future Medicine for Past Lives and Old Souls is a series of paintings exploring memories, time, and the dreams that connect them. Each painting revisits a moment, photograph, or relationship that needs healing, whether for the artist or a loved one. Through a process of intuitive drawing and painting, situational imagery is combined with visual patterns and phrases to trigger eye movement similar to what the body experiences during REM sleep, unlocking the read write processes within the brain. In this series, each canvas serves as an altar with a poem wrapping the stretcher bars facing the four directions. Meditation and medicine phrases are woven into the imagery in an effort to recall situations and relationships and rewrite their emotional meaning. These elements combine into a spiritual medicine that allows the viewer to walk into the past with the knowledge and context the future holds — bridging the difference. Connecting. Healing.
