About this piece:
This piece is called Core Attractor, a more scientific than aesthetic name, and this is because I feel that of all the grids, this one is most focused on an organized, almost electric circuit-like, spiritual and energetic function. Unlike the others, there is only negative space in the core of this design, and with Fairy Tears (iridescent heat-treated quartz marbles) surrounding it, quartz points heading outward and Ruby Aura quartz points (Magenta iridescent heat-treated quartz) heading inward, the energy buildup in the center is intense and sustained. Most apt for a focused goal, or just an influence of bringing energies into one's core, this grid does exactly what the name says, attracts to the core. The design behind it was based on a drawing I did using golden ratio proportions and is in six-fold symmetry, reminiscent of the six-pointed star, 3D cube or multi-dimensional shape called the mer-ka-ba.
About Crystal Grids:
Crystal Grids are designs made from crystals and gemstones laid out geometrically that are both aesthetically pleasing and powerfully healing. If one imagines that a stone has inherent meaning or a distinct energy, then imagine how this power is amplified when combined with other stones with their own meanings and energies. When these combinations form distinct shapes or patterns, their energies are focused even further and together they become like an electrical grid of crystal energy. If the energy of crystals can be felt to give off good feelings upon touching or looking, then a crystal grid works to generate and emit these feelings throughout the space they are set. This concept works with any object felt to be pleasing, such as a work of art or a bouquet of flowers, and if something is pleasing, it is in some ways healing. Beyond this basic foundation, crystal grids are used by many healers, light workers and magickally inclined folks to amplify intentions, reach goals and like me, experience the beauty of crystals in a creative and meditative way.

About the Background Art:
I started making glitch art in 2015 after stumbling upon the phenomenon while searching the internet for funny or cool video game glitches. It turned out that the movement of Glitch Art has been going in art and academic scenes since the late 80s, and has been surfacing as a popular movement through internet sites like Tumblr and Instagram. Now, even mainstream graphics, shows and movies use the glitch aesthetic, like in the Marvel movie Into the Spiderverse. As @mrcrystacular on Instagram, I made "a glitch a day" for about 2 years and continue to this day using cheap and available tools to create wild abstract digital art from photos as source material. At some point, I started to study Sacred Geomtry and Geometric art, perhaps to balance out the chaotic abstractions I usually made. As a result, the background art used in all of these grids were the particularly symmetrical and geometric glitches in my portfolio.

With these Crystal Grid~Glitch Art combinations, my main intention is to bring positive energy to the spaces of the people who ended up with them. My consideration was mostly aesthetic and intuitive, trying to make the best design possible with the art I made and chose, and and with the stones I gathered and chose. I tried to "listen to the stones" and got into a meditative state when designing the grid layouts, knowing that the end result was the grid's relationship with the future owner. I also cleansed the stones before using them and smudged the grids with sage after completing them. This was to clear them of any energy that may have picked up before I got them and while I made them. Ultimately, this is because I intend for these grids to be totally programmable by their owners, able to be used to hold any intention or goal they may have. The artistic complexity of them I hope will color and vitalize these intentions and goals, while adding into the mix the specific and mysterious attraction between the design and the person who liked it enough to bring it home. These are not basic grids, with simple backgrounds and clear preset intentions, but because of this, I hope that they are deep and hold meanings that will unfold over time, bringing strong blessings to whomever instills them with love and living relationship.
