In the painting "Heart of the Mirror", Krystleyez carries the viewer on a mesmerizing journey into the cosmic heart of co*creation. A timelapse of this painting's evolution was created for the Bloom Series, a documentary series on transformational festivals. Compressing two months of her creative process and over 1,000 photographs into a minute long animation, this piece evokes a meaningful reflection on sacred union and the balance of the divine feminine and masculine energies. 

“Heart of the Mirror" Artwork and Poetry by Krystleyez

The colliding of co*incidents and the friction between sheets gives rise to mountains, emOceans and heat…. forming new forms

Yin yangs of big bangs…
elemental alchemy
Source of life
Units of unity

Constellations of connections 
magnetic glue of realities 
spiraling dance of particles with possibilities….

Passion igniting action…. 
and perpetual rebirth of being
Forming the relationships between-
a circle and square, 
a vision and a prayer,
a moment and its meaning,
a lotus expression and a pond for reflection,
a piano and its strings

It is the patterns we sing and the possibilities we paint. Partnership and the child we create. The seeds we sow and fields we feel. It is the wisdom we share and (w)holes we seal. Its the environment we shield. It is our hands and the temples we build. It is everything and the emptiness we’ve filled. It is the wave that flows and sandcastles that fall… It is the space created by a window and a wall

There would be no place to gather without room in*between, or a way to come together, without another to be free. Or a glow of the moon, without the sun to be seen... and so it is with you, I return to me.

One at the heart of the mirror where our dreams can convene
To birth the infinite into the earth from all of the love that we’ve seen
