The works within this collection are more than just visual expressions; they are existential inquiries rendered in form.
Each piece serves as a portal into a different layer of awareness, depicting moments of transformation, collapse, and realization depicted within the writing of Syncretica itself.
The collection blends abstract, surreal, and symbolic imagery to illustrate the journey of individuals confronting their own perception of self and existence.
It moves fluidly between the visceral and the metaphysical, the structured and the chaotic, embracing the idea that reality itself is a construct shaped by experience and awareness.
Through these works, the collection challenges the boundaries of what is seen, what is known, and what is remembered.
Rendered in varying styles—from stark existential portraiture to chaotic dreamscapes—the works in Explorations of Syncretica exist at the threshold between the real and the ineffable.
They are not static interpretations, but invitations—visual incantations meant to provoke, disturb, and awaken.
The works do not seek to provide definitive answers to this reality but rather to immerse the viewer in the experience of becoming, and embrace the contradictions in revelations that emerge along the way.
The collection is an invitation to dissolve and rebuild, to witness and to become.
Chapter 15: Features the Traveler's journey through the surreal desert, where they manipulate reality at a great personal cost.
Artworks are full-body representations of the Traveler in various landscapes, symbolizing the breaking and reconstructing of realities and the destruction of ego.

Chapter 14: Depicts the Sojourn's psychedelic experience with the entity Aeon, exploring non-linear time and connections to nature.
The artworks are primal and surreal, resembling a hybrid of cave paintings and surrealism, capturing the Sojourn's hallucinogenic journey.

"Explorations of Syncretica" is a collection that took shape organically, beginning in August 2024 and culminating in February 2025. Initially, I created these works in a freestyle manner, without the intention of forming a cohesive collection. Over time, they became a visual manifestation of the ideas and themes within Syncretica, serving as a timeline of insight and reflection.
This collection represents the deep connection between my visual art and the philosophical narratives of Syncretica. It explores themes of enlightenment, ego dissolution, and transformation—central ideas that have shaped both my artistic and written work. Many of these pieces emerged in real time as I expanded and refined Syncretica, particularly during my work on Genesys.
