illustration pag 164

I find a correspondence between the subject of this graphic work and the general scheme of the Afterlife described in “ The forbidden fruit of the knowledge ” by Igor Sibaldi, page 164 , considering the seventh heaven the amplitude of the bowl , the bowl the lower emisphere and its content the two flexible circles of the past and future. The drawings does not show the six skies that lead to the seventh but highlights scrolling of experience between past and future in the pupil of an eye a half human half divine, that with a strap became a clock. Using the key to reading of the book the two characters not only observe the past and the future on the bottom of the bowl/emisphere, but their gazes meet on an invisible central axis wich corresponds of humanity.
Therefore following artworks are inspired to other times and worlds, they are visions of realities and possibilities connected to archetypes, places and heavens from various dimensions, not just to this humankind.
