Paracosms

Simply put,a paracosm is a detailed, imaginary world, typically dreamt up in childhood, that lives and grows across time inside the mind of its creator. The term was coined by a participant in a 1976 study by Robert Silvey, a BBC researcher who studied the formation of these vivid, inner worlds.

Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another, to cause vibrations in the soul.

Wassily Kandinsky

” I dream my painting and I paint my dream“

Van Gogh

My dreams take me to imaginary places, strangely familiar, moving through airwaves, lightwaves, soundwaves and ocean waves.

Larry Ortega
