“Faith” –|– Anthony Satori
“Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow nor reap nor store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you add even a single hour to your life by worrying? Instead, seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well.”
— The Gospel of Matthew

“Revelations” –|– Anthony Satori
“I want to work in revelations. I want to fish as deep down as possible into my own subconscious in the belief that once that far down, everyone will understand, because that far down everyone is the same.”
— Jack Kerouac
We, as human beings, have far more in common with each other than we have differences between us. And when an artist works in “revelations,” their creative expressions can become beautiful and powerful conduits for the universal elements of human existence. Experiencing art of this nature becomes no longer about “thinking.” In contrast, such revelatory art is meant to circumnavigate the rational, linear brain altogether, giving rise instead to vibrations — much like mysticism, meditation, or prayer — which resonate directly with one’s mind, spirit, and soul, and which bring with them the promise of an unparalleled purity of experience and comprehension. If the human race is to seek any best hope for the future, it will come from us finding and exploring these universal truths and values, and from cultivating the connections and bonds that arise from them.
“On Boughs Too Slight” –|– Anthony Satori
“Be like the bird who, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing she hath wings.”
— Victor Hugo
