“Two Lost Souls” by Christian Palmer

Christian Palmer returns to 2B Gallery after a sell-out show with a solo exhibition titled “Two Lost Souls”

Words from the artist:

In this body of work I am the observer losing myself in the space between here and now, life drawing, witnessing strength through vulnerability.

These are the observations of a wandering mind. It seems we are all stardust vibrating at a certain frequency.

There are fractal, asymmetrical patterns that repeat themselves throughout expressions of life from a cellular level to a cosmic scale encompassing everything in-between and beyond.

We are not separate, just disconnected.

We are part of a whole soul-a-system. Everything requires balance and polarity is integral to providing equilibrium.

As much as we can know through technological advancements that are rewriting the laws of physics in a quantum realm of entanglement or ancient mysticism and faith based traditions there is so much more we don’t have the answers to.

Human senses only detect a fraction of physical phenomena so our perception of reality is very limited. Roughly 95% of the universe’s mass-energy content is unknown or unquantifiable with current technology and understanding.

Intellect and knowledge are limited but maybe we can glimpse nature’s wisdom in moments of mindfulness where imperfection highlights real beauty and mistakes push life in new directions.

This stuff goes through my head while I procrastinate before finally embarking on a frenzied period of creative endeavour.

I do cymatics experiments and infuse water with vibrations at various frequencies and use the water to mix my paint. I don’t know if it water retains the data from the frequency but its interesting to me and makes me curious.

I go to sound healing gatherings to experience the effects for myself. Learn how ancient cultures use sound and frequency and see those practices kept alive by first nations people and religious orders in their chanting.

Everything is vibration, energy, frequency according to science.

Maybe a space where a soul can be found too.
