All One Gallery

The exhibition, Inner Sanctums, features iconic works by extraordinary contemporary artists, renowned for their powerful and poetic portrayals of the sanctuary of their Psyche. While deeply personal, these works invite viewers to reflect on universal themes.

The inner sanctum of our imagination, available to all, is invisible to others. When skilled & effective visionary artists share glimpses of the hidden depth of their inner world, they share through their creations, a personal vision and viewpoint of conditions within the collective. In this group exhibition, twelve artists explore the expressive strategies of Realism, Symbolism and Abstraction, providing new perspectives from the heights and depths of an inner world. Each work reveals evidence of a private vision, accomplished by accomplished masters of depiction.

Featured Artists & Works

We are honored to feature three powerful pieces from Judy Chicago's 1985 Birth Series. One work utilizes color pencils on paper, while the other two are serigraph prints, all of which powerfully evoke the beauty and violence of birth.

Judy Chicago — Birth Series (1985)

Bo Bartlett — Flying Man

A vision of anti-gravity ascension into a pink Heaven: eyes closed, the figure rises in his dream.

Joe Coleman — Three Graces

A minutely detailed portrait of his beloved wife, Whitney, and her friends, surrounded by thought-forms both lustful and heavenly—representing a mythic fractal of his own life and art.

Karla Knight — Tapestries

Transmissions from another dimension combining symbols of eyes, alien text, and allusions to other-worldly technologies.

Kelsey Brooks — Abstract Field Painting

Massive, labor-intensive abstract fields inspired by entheogenic experiences—portals of infinity seen behind the eyelids on mystic journeys.

Joseph Parker — Psychedelic Sunrises

Visions triggered prior to epileptic episodes. Like plein-air paintings from an altered state of consciousness, these works were inspired by clairvoyant glimpses of paradise in spectral jewel-like illumination.

Autumn Skye — Lightworkers

A unified planet Earth for our troubled time, woven by tender hands into a cosmic circular web of interconnectedness.

Rick Griffin — Renowned 60's Psychedelic Poster & Zine Artist

Ink drawings including album art for rock band, The Who; a page out of his self-published zine, 'Man from Utopia'; and the improvisational work, 'Can’t Quite Putcher Finger Onit.'

Lee Conklin — Renowned San Francisco Psychedelic Poster Artist of the 60's

Labor-intensive abstractions of supernatural beings and space-scape forests, containing faces and fantastic forms.

Jacaeber Kastor — Artist & Psychedelic Art Dealer Since the 60's

Meticulous & laborious, improvisational ink pen worlds that appear as webs of emotion and intuition.

Sebastian Wahl — Collage Mandalas

Painstaking collage mandalas embedded in multiple layers of resin. Third Eye Vision weaves mystic & religious archetypes, star fields, sea & insect creatures and more, into a universe of sacred geometric petals.

Naoto Hattori — Dreamlike Creatures

Japanese artist, Naoto Hattori creates intricate dreamlike paintings of fantastic whimsical creatures that blur the line between humans, animals and monsters.

Daniel Popper — South African Sculptor

Offers a small maquette of a monumental work. The work in its full glory transforms a public space into a surreal ceremonial environment, merging the identity of nature with humanity & spirituality.
