Geometric Dreaming Archetypes
Mikiah Storm - Illustrator & Author
The “Geometric Dreaming” project has been a wonderful opportunity for me to rediscover my artistic identity. Since my teenage years, I have wanted to create art that inspires people to self-reflect. These paintings symbolize my life’s journey – the wonders, hardships and bittersweet dualism of being human. Every archetype is a part of me that has been externalised, now existing in a physical form that is separate to my own body. The visual art was the simplest part of the process, with the more intricate component being countless hours of meditation and integration. The Geometric Dreaming archetypes are infused into my daily life, serving as a constant reminder of my multi-faceted personality. I hope that getting to know them serves you just as well.
Mox Multiverse - Music Producer
The continuation of this project is dedicated to my late partner, artistic mentor and collaborator, Mox. Our love stretches beyond time, space and death.
A snippet written by Mox: The music from “Geometric Dreaming” came about as a series of improvised experimental pieces, inspired by the digital kaleidoscope animations created by Mikiah Storm. I took the videos into my studio, and watched them on a loop while I played my electric guitar sounds. The recordings developed in this way as I built up multi-track projects, feeling into the energy of each piece to create something that captured the essence of what Mikiah has expressed through her visual art and animations. “Geometric Dreaming” has been a fantastic project for me to develop my audio engineering skills.
