sloow tapes press release...

sloow ley lines – d jason leinwand s/t book sloow ley lines – d awesome collection of psychedelic collage art by this brooklyn based artist. a collection of mushrooms, skulls, aliens and eastern symbolism. as jason says: my work is about being. bright, colorful, paper collages functioning as the mandala or the yantra: a meditational tool aimed at self-discovery, spiritual awakening, and devotion to the divine being. navigating consciousness through laser beams, shakti, and joy. confronting fear by maintaining a rigorous process, kali, and death. experiencing harmony from symmetry, ufo’s, and the cosmos. densely layered patterns, shapes, and line hold together deep, symmetrical spaces where mind and body potential is revealed and explored. in either case, an attempt to create a magic sacred space where our primordial questions about being, co-exist with comic books, science fiction, timothy leary and terrance mckenna. a magic sacred space where the divine mother goddess can just as easily caress and nurture you as ferociously rip your face off. full-colour cover and 18 pages b&w.
