// STATE OF MIND //
Several one nights of past lives
Still echo throughout my mind
Stars reflecting in stone and glass
Lights carrying hopes, decayed at last
All the What if’s, and what may be’s
Shine on towers far as eyes can see
A mind open, old heart strings too
Alas, most lost souls split in two
Juxtaposed, fractured and bare
Blurred memories return with care
Searching for one feeling we hope to find
That sleepless New York State of mind.

Inspired during explorations for a NFTNYC'24 exhibition, this direction was developed from side branches of a collection I have been working on since November'23, called 'Altered States'. The blending of concepts were strong, but felt like I needed to go a different way for the show in NYC.
However, many of the works I conceptualized still hit me hard, and while I won't be minting the others, this piece was refined and finished as a gift for a recent collector, and friend, MLOW.
