About the Artwork “Touch of the Invisible”
I painted this artwork in November 2020 in Colombia during my visit of Amazonan rainforest. Near the town of San Agustin, I attended several Ayahuasca ceremonies with Taita Gonzales. (Taita is a Colombian designation for a traditional healer with Ayahuasca…). Gonzales is a Healer from the Kofani tribe and lives in the northern part of Ecuador.
The painting expresses the “Touch of the Invisible”, what (almost) everyone experiences every time they drink Ayahuasca. Confrontation with the invisible spiritual world… Various stories, characters, not only human, but also animal or plant “ghosts” usually appear in the inner vision…
The middle part of the painting is something like the “Golden Temple”, a place where medicine is administered Yagé (Ayahuasca), a place of healing and deep transformation…
