Facets of Consciousness
As living beings, it’s unfathomable how our conscious reality functions separate from, yet is totally dependent on the foundational material reality. So I present a few major facets of human consciousness in these images, relative to my metaphysical concept of 5 elements of life in these images: Assimilation - Prismatic Elemental 5 Communing With Nature is one who knows himself as an expression of the world. The world and ourselves are made of the same elements. Fortification - Root of ChatGPT_1 Projecting one’s psyche reveals ego and subconscious bias. Knowledge - Trial of the Innocent 3 Discernment is vital to coalescing understanding and countering assumption. Growth - Soul Chess Competition with others with imagination tests one’s will to survive and prosper. Creation - Mother of All Signs Maternal choice is open to a creative astrological diversity of progeny.

[/urls_to_images]About the artist
[my middle name is my artist name, pronounced phonetically “mu-arr-aei (‘i’ almost silent)”] This 'person' you've met is a geode with a crack in it, whose multifaceted inner world is only revealed when you shine a light into it. I keep growing - with symbience, assimilating more and more of the world. 'None' of you can really 'k-n-o-w' my soul until you come to know the world's secrets. I have been your meditation - your brother - your canary in the coal mine - your beast of burden - your critic - your white blood cell - your sage. Life-long, I’ve practiced many creative arts. Drawing complex geometric symmetry and sci-fi landscapes, arts & crafts with wood, metal, carving, competitive costume creation, digital (pc art and video game play maps), photography, videography, and some creative writing. Include original world design in table-top role-playing fantasy games. I photograph wild flora, fauna, landscapes & storms. I use nature / natural materials with trick photography to create surreal images. With generative AI symbiance, I create otherworldly, mythological & fantasy scenes & creatures. I started exploring & writing about cosmic structure & philosophy in respect to ontology, metaphysics, and epistemology at age 11, going at it for 33+ years! I'm an old soul as well, which helps... with everything! * It's funny how I went from a mind full of surreal / multidimensional subjects that I could not put words to, to have grown & learned to do the reverse - use articulation to create expressions with AI art! In 2023, I went into online photography sales, expanding into promptography digital art (AI generator) to match a collection of my own captions of humor and philosophy. I was thrilled! It was like a missing part of myself, complimenting my vast and multi-dimensional imagination. I have a forestry & wildlife conservation degree, and commune with Nature as often as I can. It has been my inspiration for evolving my photography / videography (editing) skills over my lifetime. July 2025, I had to close my online business due to due to finance, inadequate advertising sources, and anti-A.I. sabotage by Meta and Wix insiders. ~ Sage Muauraei Crystalman
