This artwork is intended to both demonstrate and facilitate a spiritual experience. I Am the Emanation is a dramatization of divine manifestation, a transformative encounter with a higher order Being who appears to emerge from cosmic space fully in the throes of kundalini. Andre Ferrella brings to his art a life time of spiritual study and exploration of the world’s sacred traditions and iconography. With his indisputable technical virtuosity, Ferrella is able to reveal higher orders of reality and the interconnectedness of existence that has been described by ageless enlightened teachers and mystics. Ferrella communicates these ineffable spiritual experiences and phenomena, at the same time that he enables our own explorations and awakenings. I Am the Emanation appears as an archetypal figure of spiritual power and authority. The figure’s bearing is benevolent, the posture suggesting magnanimity as it flashes a scintillating luminosity that reaches out to us in transfiguring embrace.
