Place of Dwelling
An oval portal reveals a red cabin standing before mysterious stone steps ascending toward infinity. The ancient rock wall behind suggests megalithic construction—possibly resembling formations from Machu Picchu, ancient Incan stonework, or similar pre-Columbian architecture with its precise, mortarless joints. Magic mushrooms emerge from textured grounds of pink, lavender, turquoise, and sage green, their caps catching metallic gold highlights. The composition swirls with organic chaos meeting architectural permanence, wild nature reclaiming human construction, or perhaps the eternal dwelling place where ancestors still reside. The oval format creates a looking-glass effect, as if we're peering through a gap in reality into a place where time moves differently.

Hidden Imagery & Symbolism: The red cabin represents home, shelter, and human domesticity. The ancient stone architecture suggests lost civilizations, ancestral wisdom, and the permanence of sacred building. The ascending staircase symbolizes spiritual journey, initiation, or the passage to other realms. Mushrooms carry powerful symbolism of transformation, decay-and-rebirth cycles, and consciousness expansion. Together, these elements suggest a threshold between worlds—domestic and wild, present and ancient, mundane and mystical.Interpretation
This piece explores the liminal spaces where contemporary life intersects with ancient wisdom. The cabin before ancient ruins suggests we build our small homes upon foundations we barely understand, that beneath every threshold lie older thresholds. The mushrooms hint at natural cycles reclaiming all human construction eventually, or perhaps at the psychedelic keys that unlock perception of these deeper layers.Poetry
