2006 — 2009 • Zero Point Field
The Field as described by Lynne McTaggart is “a repository of all fields and all ground energy states and all virtual particles. It is a field of fields.” The existence of the Zero Point Field is the contemporary explanation for many metaphysical notions such as extra sensory perception, chi, mind/body relationships, remote healing and miracles. Today we look to science to prove what ancient philosophers, oracles, shamans, and Eastern wisdom have practiced. It is suggested that the boundaries between ancient wisdom; scientific calculations; and omniscient experiences are indeed narrowing.
That said, most of us who take time to reflect on the progression of our lives notice that for a large part—we are our thoughts. Our lives perform around our intentions—calculated or not. But dare we think that we are the sole proprietor of our outcomes, we must also notice that our world is not all about what we intend it to be. It is also about exchanges, transience, and the unpredictable nature of things. It is about our relationship to everything we think and feel, plus everything we touch. It is about a Zero Point Field of interconnection. It is foremost about the collective us.
These paintings celebrate this shift in perception and offer a fantastical doorway into this realm of interconnected possibilities. Through the exchange of intention and surrender may we become enlightened to the potential of unity, community, purpose and the spiritual radiance in all things. —mo, 2008
