A Universal Marriage of Myth, Media, and Maize

Cornfield: An Artstory is an artistic ode to the Life we all share, grounded in meditations on Consciousness, Art, and our Environment. Cornfield is expressed through the mediums of painting, sculpture, cinema, and the written word. Here nature is transformed into Art, with You, the Viewer, at it's center. Cornfield merges these elements into

'A Universal Marriage of Myth, Media, and Maize'

In Cornfield: An Artstory images and symbols abound and Truth is at play - art is the story. It is sacred ground for all to enjoy. Cornfield is about both You and I. It is a place to engage the power of art and myth, while experiencing the wonder and mystery of Consciousness.

With the understanding of Maize as Divine food, the Cornfield Ground design echoes the spirit of the Maize Goddess as expressed in the indigenous culture of the Americas.

Cornfield lives in the spirit of sustainability and compassion for all peoples, animals, and creatures of our world. Cornfield stands with the Conscious keeping of our Environment . . . with the Water Protectors, the Seed Mothers and Fathers, and all those working to protect Mother Earth and the sanctity of food.

There are two distinct halves of Cornfield. They represent the inner and outer life of the human experience, where the source of Love, Creativity, and Consciousness is revealed.

The upper half is home to the seven panel mural Chorale, sitting atop a wooden architecture displaying monitors within each base. The seven panels are themed on the Harvest, the cycles of nature, and the twin actions of effort and grace. The lower half features the five panel mural Room 1-2-3 (4-5), along with the companion painting Burning Sheaves, illustrating the five-fold function of Consciousness - (1) Creation (2) Sustenance (3) Dissolution (4) Concealment (5) Grace.

Together they form the organic whole that is Cornfield: An Artstory, offered in service to the fire of inspiration, the peace of meditation, and the joy of aesthetic experience.
