Grey's Sacred Mirrors are portraits of the human being in a universal sense, attempting to address every aspect of the body and spirit.
It is the light that is sublime in Grey's oeuvre-which is the most important innovation in religious light since the Baroque (perhaps the last art to emphasize the sacredness of light, as well as its function as an emblem of the spiritual)-and that makes the mundane beings in them seem sublime, in every realistic detail of their exquisite being.
Alex Grey is making some of the most beautifully refined imagist work in the country today.
