Dan Schaub Designs - Mysteriosophia Mythos Mask - HEADGEAR XI (2023)

This is a one of a kind piece of wearable art made for the Five and Diamond Eleventh Annual Headgear Art Show and shown on June 16, 2023 in San Francisco.

ARTIST: Dan Schaub Designs
LOCATED IN: Hudson Valley NY

DESCRIPTION:

My aim is to create intricate objects that demand acute observation both during the creating process and by the viewer after the object is finished. In creating these ornate objects I hope to momentarily overwhelm the visual sensory input as a method of pulling the viewer away from their thoughts and into the moment where only the object exists and nothing else. While I pull my inspiration from both the contemporary visionary art movement and religious art and architecture from around the world, I prefer to find my designs from within utilizing the unconscious, trance, and meditative states to begin my forms. My designs often follow strict, self-imposed geometric rules. I work within pre-set limitations intuitively, altering the designs as I go without over-thinking changes; trusting in my unconscious mind and vision to lead me to satisfying ends
