As we create art as an expression of ourselves, we translate our perceptions and emotions into a physical format that tells our inner story. However, as our inner story is translated through our own personal life-experience filters, what is expressed physically is not necessarily read by the viewer as a similar experience. For the past 150 years the art world has been encouraging of the viewer's experience to be open to any interpretation that their own life-experience filters place on a work of art; I want the viewer to enter into the communication with me and have a more complete understanding of what I experienced in the scene, in the process of the creation and of the emotions it conjured, and then, from there, to process all of the input through their personal filters to create their own expanded experience.
The estimated number of nerve cells in the human brain is approximately 100 billion. And each nerve cell has the ability to fire a message about 1,000x per second. Additionally, each nerve cell has the ability to simultaneously send a message to 10,000 other brain cells.
When an artist commits many hours, days, weeks or maybe months to creating an image or sound or sensation, for the audience, trillions of nerve cell hours are involved. It is amazing that humans have relied for thousands of years on thinking that we could communicate to each other on a bi or tri-dimensional level (2 & 3D).
Our current experiences are processed through our senses; the 5 main senses which are the most commonly understood: taste, smell, touch, sound and visual experiences. What excrypted art asks you to do is to align your senses along a guided pathway to utilize more of the brain cells for an expanded experience of the artwork.
Each work of art is provided with a key for each of the senses. If you gather the suggested articles and utilize them while observing the art, you can better understand my message. Otherwise, use your imagination to incorporated these additional cues to help guide your experience.
