The Paintings of Martin Berkovitz - Talismans of the Infinite stretch our awareness to the vastness of a limitless universe.
Previous Works / Talismans of the Infinite
Infinity is the theme of this category. It is about stretching our minds and awareness far beyond our small planet to the dazzling vastness of a limitless universe. It is also about the inner spiritual infinity that lies at the basis of our beings. It is a state without beginnings, endings, or boundaries.
When I have used alien images it is in no way to deify them. Just as I have expressed Mother of the World and Maitreya-Christos using human iconic forms to suggest the divine in all of us, so I have used alien forms to extend this into a universal expression.
A calm expanding majesty is the best way I can define what I have tried to express in this body of work.
