In this Multidimensional Fine Art series, Release from the Cave, we explore the ancient philosophy of Plato's "Cave Allegory" which, metaphorically, describes the journey of the soul from an illusory state of unconsciousness to a blissful state of peace and enlightenment. From a place of Self-mastery, our species will evolve from the current egoic and codependent human into the independent , compassionate, loving, and powerful Next Human.

Aluminum Sublimation
Sublimation onto metal is a new, cutting edge, way to reproduce an image, but has been used in the textile industry for decades. Sublimation itself is the process of going from a solid to a gas, back to a solid - skipping the liquid state.The image is first printed onto a transfer paper and then is adhered to pretreated aluminum (other substrates such as tile, wood, or glass are also available).The aluminum and transfer paper are placed into a custom heat press, which is heated to temperatures exceeding 380 degrees Fahrenheit. While being subjected to extreme heat and pressure, the dyes from the transfer paper turn into a gas, are pressed into the surface of the metal, and then solidify into the treated aluminum. As the dyes cool they are permanently infused beneath the surface of the metal substrate.
