A GUIDE TO
The Human Galaxy
by Dominique Sanson
a painting on canvas
8 x 2 metres
SSeen from a distance, the viewer BEHOLDS a vast galaxy floating in the dark Universe, surrounded by images of the Big Bang, the creation of different galaxies, stars, solar systems, planets, black holes, etc..
When examined closer, this galaxy contains a large number of scenes illustrating the evolution of mankind, essentially concerned with knowledge transmitted through Shamanism, Tantrism, Alchemy, Gnosis, Sufism, Kabbalah, freemasonry and modern secret societies.
The central part is dedicated to the global civilization before the Floods, centred on the Garden of Eden, the manipulation of humans by the gods, their achievements and their wars.
The left side of the Galaxy features different steps of earth’s creation, the beginning of Life , the evolution of plants and animals, from the first cell to amphibians, dinosaurs, mammals, apes, etc…, all the way to the first hominids.
The edge of the galaxy shows the various civilizations which emerged after the great floods in africa, the Middle East and Egypt, far east, Europe, America and Polynesia, etc...
The right side of the galaxy shows recent Times, modern problems and expectations for the Future.
The Human Galaxy is a work of art, and as such, has no historical pretensions. It merely aims to illustrate important events underlying the existence of Mankind.
It is not here to provide answers but rather to provoke questions in the mind of the seeker of truth and suggest alternative scenarios to official science.. . all scenes depicted, their subtle connections and their influence on human development are left open to the viewer’s interpretation
The Human Galaxy, Ibiza 2009-2011
There is a secret door which connects us with other worlds, other dimensions. Esoteric traditions show us the way to this door, taking us beyond the limits of time and space, beyond the limitations of our brain. There are many ways, one for each of us. What is behind that door can be experienced but to explain it in words is impossible. How can one express absolute infinity?
Some lucky people have occasional access to these other dimensions because their pineal gland naturally produces enough DMT to transcend reality. They are the sages and prophets of human history. Others, like shamen, achieve the same with the help of ayahuasca, peyote, LSD and other psychotropic drugs. The mystics use physical and respiratory exercises in their constant process of self-effacement while the yogis, similarly awaken kundalini with tantric methods. Modern science is close to understanding all this intellectually and will eventually contribute to human development and wellbeing.
We all reach the secret door when we discard our human body. But whichever way we follow, there is an ingredient which is absolutely necessary. It is love. Love of life, love of our fellow humans, love of animals, love of nature, love of beauty and harmony, love of God. For what is behind the secret door is God, as understood by all esoteric traditions, infinite, indescribable and the conscience of the quantic theory.
The Human Galaxy is a visual guide that will help bring to attention little known subjects, a map to interconnect seemingly conflictive ideas that underlie the human search for an understanding of life.
