About Me

Hi, I’m Samuel Farrand — born, raised, and currently living in the U.S. I’ve always been a creator in some form for as long as I can remember, but everything changed in the late ’90s when art took on a whole new meaning for me.

That moment came on a spring night in 1999 at my first rave — the night of my first full-on psychedelic experience. What I saw and felt moved me so deeply that I made a promise to myself: I would recreate those inner experiences so others could see and feel those states of mind — and that’s exactly what I’ve done ever since.

It felt like a life mission. I dropped out of college where I was studying computer networking, and for the next decade, I devoted myself to tapping into my inner vision. Eventually, I took that mission even further by attending a private art school, where I studied fine art, illustration, art history, and graphic design.

What began as simple 10-layer collages in Photoshop has now spiraled into something much more massive — over 450 original visionary art pieces, each averaging 100+ million pixels, 300+ layers, and 80+ hours of work per piece.

And I’m not done. Not even close.

All of my creations are an attempt to illustrate the layers that make up consciousness as I perceive it to be. I like to start all my work off with a black background; to me it represents the space of unbound infinte potential. This space is talked about in many religious beliefs and creation myths from around the world and is what is commonly referred to as “the void” or “clear light”. When I create from this clear light it allows me to enter into a deep sacred space where I can attune to the subtle energy and vibrations of the world around us and most importantly that which is within us.

Some of the dominant reoccurring themes that I enjoy creating are expressions of ancient and contemporary culture, geometry, divine proportion, spirituality, architecture, symbolism and nature. Creating in this fashion is a spiritual experience for me and often times produces the feelings of bliss, excitement, wonder and nostalgia; it is my hope as the artist that my art can help evoke the same feelings for you and also offer a similar spiritual experience.
