Art an spirituality Paul Laffoley


This guy is intense, he paints these huge detailed architectural esoteric diagrams

"his work is usually classified as visionary art or outsider art combine words and imagery to depict a spiritual architecture of explanation, tackling concepts like dimensionality, time travel through hacking relativity, connecting conceptual threads shared by philosophers through the millennia, and theories about the cosmic origins of mankind"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Laffoley

I suppose his work is considered outsider because it is!? I guess for me this is true outsider art... art that exists outside the art world. It speaks for itself really, hes kind of like a mad scientist coming up with all these crazy theories and linking them up with budhist mantras. when you look at them you can almost hear him rambling this stuff!
