In the summer of 2009 my girlfriend and I participated in an ayahuasca ceremony; my second with Maestro Juan Flores, her first. As is common with ayahuasca, the ceremony was one of profound, personal revelation and healing, but my partner reported something in particular that caught my attention simply as an artist.

This piece, Oso Blanco y Pachamama, is another joint creation with ayahuasquero, Jim Sanders, who also wrote an accompanying icaro (medicine song) for it. Our first was the Cosmic Tigger piece.

Last night I dreamed of a “star miner” frustrated with his work.
