About the Artwork

The Cloud of Unknowing was the title of a book written by an anonymous monk from a Carthusian order in the 14th century. The text explores how knowledge of the divine can be expressed through poetry and wonder, and the observation that the spiritual experience is beyond that which the rational mind can effectively describe. Sharing the same title, this painting is a playful take on this, and contains small hybrid creatures, referencing alchemy and ancient deities. This surreal painting has a gentle and lovingly humorous ambience, creating an enchanted Otherworld to explore the mystical mindset.
