Visionary Art

Visionary artist, Alex Grey opened the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors in 2004. "(CoSM) is a sanctuary in New York City for contemplation and a center for events encouraging the creative spirit. The Sacred Mirrors, on display in the Chapel, are a series of paintings that allow us to see ourselves and each other as reflections of the divine."

If you are visiting NYC, you might want to pop in and experience the work of this visionary artist.
