Painting

a sliver of myself is a cool and gentle flame faintly whispering a secret song guiding me back into my self

It took so many lifetimes to finally recognize the blossomed flowers that have always perfumed my path as I carelessly walked by

trusting nature to carry you where you should be instantaneously like a lightning flash you are already here

Grace beats karma

me and you and the trees aspects of a dreamy organism slow-dance melodramatically lovey-dovey and starry-eyed

nowhere to be nothing to do In this holy moment every secret of existence Is revealed to you

Loving the world so much

Traveling via light reflected from a floating moon A phantasmic deity earnestly protects you on your sojourn to this planet

a bubble is a temporary form made of a thin membrane that contains a tiny fraction of the space that surrounds it separated from the vast space the tiny space lives as a bubble beautifully iridescent but lonely when the bubble pops form returns to formles

don’t over complicate life

i emanated into this dream to delight in the experience of being devoured by a sublime apparition

as I fall asleep a dream flower materializes as a dream flower without germination sprouting or bloom as i wake up from my dream my dream flowers vanish

i am a flower of the cosmos who recognizes that you are a flower of the cosmos

In your heart a boundless sea of tranquility, cradles and soothes you, as you watch the storm pass

shout out to the ego salutations to the transcendent good vibes in the material world all my love for the divine

kissed and made up with nothing to forgive you and the planets relax deeply bathing together in a warm and milky purple spring

heartaches and triumphs terror and elation play their part disguised as paradox in synchronistic multiplicity to bring you home

breaking out of contraction with electric fervor endlessly expanding form disintegrating perfect peace shines through formless clarity

burning smoldering desire in a cooling incineration sighing smoke plumes that flow upwards becoming a fragment of the dusky sky

The ache of unalloyed joy tenderly beckons from behind a translucent veil

Wonzimer is thrilled to present ‘Plants and Animals that Live Inside a Dream' Tae Lee’s first Solo Exhibition with the gallery.&#x20;

This collection of work is a gentle dive into the illusory nature of our perception of reality. Influenced by the teachings of Vedic philosophy as well as the experiential glimpses of the ecstatic. The paintings represent an expression of the energy that naturally arises in moments of surrender.&#x20;

Through playful imagery, Lee gently challenges the very fabric of our perceived reality and embarks on a quest to discover the true essence of being. Inspired by the artist's own explorations of consciousness, the paintings capture the sense of awe, wonder, and boundless possibility that emerges during moments of deep connection with the universe. Tae Lee Playfully teases our consensus understanding of the nature of self and consciousness through ethereal creatures that seem to shimmer on the verge of existence.
