Blue Consciousness

$1,034.00

The Blue Man Group commissioned me to produce a large-scale work on canvas to be displayed at their Briar Street theatre in Chicago. "Blue Consciousness" was printed 10 x 10 feet in size and was displayed for four years. This was the first time that the Blue Man Group commissioned art to decorate their theater. 

The joyful essence of the Blue Man Group comes from unbridled creativity, imagination, teamed up with humor. This creativity arises from the interactions of our neurons–the interplay of their immensely tangled processes, coupled with stored associations, memories. In Blue Consciousness there are multiple layers of my own neurons, brain scans, and brain wave tracings overlying a transformed photograph I took of a polar bear on Beechy Island, in the Canadian high arctic. The images in these layers span many decades of experience. The polar bear is surrounded by blue ice, blue skies, blue consciousness.

Limited Edition Print is signed and numbered. Paper size 24x24 in, image size 20x20 in. The Original piece 10x10 ft in size, was commissioned by Chicago's Blue Man Group.
