ART EVOLVES CONSCIOUSNESS®
Illumination explores the traditional topic of light but from a purely spiritual perspective. These paintings are the spiritual made material. They reference the horizon as the point of departure for the enlightened mind as the sun breaks through the darkness between earth and the sky.
This work expresses the dawning of a light filled state of awareness or consciousness within the mind. They track the progress of the light that pushes out conditioning, ego attachments, thoughts and the sense of the self as mortal and finite. In all of my work, I am tracking the movement from unconscious to conscious awareness toward enlightenment
Enlightenment is, at its essence, the presence of light. It is a state of mind. Once the light enters the mind and imagination, it enters and consumes the body.

The deeper the blue becomes, the more strongly it calls man towards the infinite, awakening in him a desire for the pure and, finally, for the supernatural...The brighter it becomes, the more it loses its sound, until it turns into silent stillness and becomes white.

The Void
I am being filled
from the inside out
by a great void.
A vast emptiness
covered by the thin skin
of identity.

Executed in a kind of meditative semi-trance, Jill Joy’s paintings are like artifacts, residues of the energy that produced them, both art historically/materially and spiritually galvanized process paintings of the highest order; and further, physical conduits of that same luminous energy, radiating into the world. ~ The Huffington Post

Solace
quiet moment
silent mind
light cracks through
the dark drawn blind
crowded moments
have now flown
time stretches out
lithe and long
the next moment
cannot conceive
this long moment
a breath of reprieve
Limitless Borders
limitless borders
disappearing mind
dissolving ground
i am nowhere to be found
