“The living body-mind inherently wants to realize the matrix of life, wants to allow the light into the “room.” Making it possible for human beings to fulfill that impulse is what I work to do. My images are created to be a means of participating in reality as fundamental light.” Adi Da Samraj

Recognized as one of the most significant spiritual masters living today, Adi Da Samraj has also emerged as an artist of remarkable inventiveness and vision, generating myriad artworks by compositing and permutating photographic images into vast, rhythmically arranged structures.

The images in the 2006 limited-edition portfolio have been culled from several suites produced by Adi Da Samraj over a period of two years while residing in spiritual retreat in Fiji and Hawaii. In these extended, often staggeringly dense image-constructions, reality, for all its complexity and multifariousness, is revealed as an experiential unity – and an actual one, a whole that contains and is contained by the sum of its parts.

Da Plastique presents this special 2006 limited-edition portfolio of artistic works by Adi Da Samraj, in recognition and support of his upcoming exhibition at the Venice Biennale, Italy (June-November, 2007). The exhibition will be Adi Da Samraj’s premiere in Europe.
