About Me
Hi, I’m Patrick Zion, and I’m a spiritual artist. I create most of my work in a fractal-generating app called FRAX. Thus, my psychedelic spiritual art is based on fractals. Fractals are similar patterns occurring in nature. That’s why the shell of a snail has the same shape as the Milky Way galaxy, or why tree branches align in the same way a trail left by a lighting does. That’s what inspires me.
What Fractals
The graphics in the app I’m using are based on the mathematically designed fractals called Mandelbrot and Julia, respectably bearing the names of their creators. Thanks to many options for manipulating the patterns, it offers almost limitless possibilities for creating wonderful and captivating designs.
In The Beginning
I grew up up in Poland in the Hip Hop culture when I was younger. And I always dreamed of being a graffiti artist. Having made only two amateur graffiti in total, thus I dropped this hobby in pursuit of personal growth and finding other means of self-expression which I found in music. Several years ago, however, some time after I moved to Brooklyn, New York in the US, I discovered the app I’m working with. I quickly realized its nearly endless capabilities for creating by its means graffiti-like designs. As a result it rekindled my passion for this form of art and I decided to put all of my energy and focus into it. And that’s how I became a fractal spiritual artist.
The Rise of A.I. Generated Art
As you can see, in some of my artworks, I implement various figures levitating in a meditative posture, which I personally haven’t created. The aura or halo effect around them is added when I finish working on my graphics in Canva; however, the figures themselves are generated with the help of DALL-E in ChatGPT 4. AI is a technology that has taken the world by storm these days, and, whether we like it or not, it’s becoming a part of our daily lives. When it comes to the art world, critics of AI-generated art say it will destroy it. I beg to differ. In my case, it gives me unlimited resources to add finishing touches to my fractal designs. It inspired me to envision spiritual art graphics that express the transcendence of mystical experience. For me, it was that missing piece of the puzzle, something exactly what I needed.
The Craft
As You can see, there’s more to my art than meets the eye. Every time I begin to work on a new piece, it’s a true path to order out of chaos. And don’t just take my word for it. See for yourselves!👇
For Who?
So, that being said, my work I reckon can appeal, for example, to graffiti, as well as abstract, psychedelic and spiritual art enthusiasts.
End Note
To sum up, of course, it feels good to be appreciated as an artist. But I would do it regardless of whether I’d get paid for it or not. My art is my therapy. It’s one of my passions. And I wish upon anyone to find something through which they can express themselves. What brings with it meaning, joy, self-understanding, and purpose into our lives.
