This gouache reveals a butterfly tree with wings covered in multiple eyes towards the observer. In this primitive kaleidoscope playing with perspectives, the artist Rupert Picott leads us into a dance of forms, half-animal, half-vegetal. Here, we can breathe a nature distanced from civilization, a shattered, psychedelic dimension that opens the doors of a hallucinated perception.
This gouache transcends its physical form. Like a dream woven into reality, it beckons viewers to question the boundaries of their consciousness. Each brushstroke becomes a portal to a realm where the mundane and the mystical intertwine, blurring the lines between what is seen and felt. In this dialogue between forms and colors, Rupert Picott offers us not just a painting but a glimpse into the infinite expanse of the human experience, echoing William Blake’s timeless wisdom: ‘If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is: infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern ».
Rupert Picott, a Brooklyn-based artist renowned for his vibrant abstract creations, articulates his artistic philosophy with profound insight, delving into the essence of life itself, seeking wisdom in existence, consciousness, and absolute bliss. His work explores hermetic, alchemical, and holy sciences, probing nature's origins and culmination. Picott's oeuvre is a visual manifestation of the profound revelations gleaned from his journey into the depths of existence. less
