Trey Berry

I seek experience that not only changes my personal and spiritual views but experiences that rock the very foundations of the soul.

Nothing of great value comes without sacrifice. Personal discovery and the resulting destruction of the ego is a calling of the highest order.

Let the revolution begin.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I recognized at an early age that my passion in life was to create beautiful objects.  My work expresses a connection with a  higher consciousness. Nothing exists that does not touch the other. I believe,  the more we become aware of our inner world, the more our relationship changes  with our outer world or reality.  The understanding of the subconscious and discovering super conscious symbols that speak to all is the objective.  These paintings imagine mystic and symbolic worlds that express wonder not fear of the unknown.

I spend many of my days painting. The experience carries me to places far into my imagination, places that seem to exist more and more closely to reality than the day before.  Dreams and visions give me great faith in humanity and a greater knowledge of the immensity of the universe of the inner mind.  Creating gives great power to the artist; it allows one to explore all possibilities and have vision of what can be. Remembering those on this path that have gone before us, listening for secrets, seeing visions, smelling the spirits, mixing the medium is a history and ritual as old as man.  Magic never evades us. It is all around us, a great river forever flowing through time. With every brushstroke and thought that passes we create our own destiny. I seek experience that not only changes my personal and spiritual views but experiences that rock the very foundations of the soul. Nothing of great value comes without sacrifice. Personal discovery and the resulting destruction of the ego is a calling of the highest order. Let the revolution begin.
