Ideas expressed in this episode:
Art being able to communicate messages that words can't describe Creating, manifesting, capturing, hunting for... "IT" The podcast highlighting todays "unsung heroes". These artists have the potential to eventually become "cult classics". Our job as an artist is to translate experiences and to share them with the world Different levels of dimensions and consciousness Virtual reality becoming a part of reality Living with love and fear in our lives. Creating a no fear zone Becoming Photo Editor for Vice Conversations becoming artworks within themselves Trying to live within a non-consumerist way of life The art world being a vast sea of hits and misses. Being both deep and shallow. Our relationship with our own truths and universal truthswww.instagram.com/artistdecoded
