We want you to get lost in this. Even if it’s just for a second. Find a colour that speaks to you and take a journey into space. Allow yourself to contemplate your humility in the face of all the natural might our universe has to offer. 
Let’s travel lightyears ahead. 
Together.
This painting is the crown jewel of our Lightyears Ahead exhibition. It is the apotheosis of an intense collaboration.
Preparation, creation, and finish spanned over four months of 2020. Eight different layers. Twenty-five liters of paint. Eight liters of gloss coating. Two liters of varnish. Hundreds of hours of painting. Countless cappuccinos.
The name of the canvas, In Sterquiliniis Invenitur, translates to ‘our brightest light is found in the darkest of places’. It is a medieval, alchemic dictum that perfectly captures the essence of the work and our time.
We trusted each other unconditionally, setting no boundaries whatsoever. Months of complementing, redirecting, and adjusting each other’s brush strokes. Peter represents dark, burning, and heavy energy. Charlotte is a beacon of light, flowing colors, and hopeful energy. By balancing those energies, our work was born.
The result is a landscape that spans lightyears, guiding us into the future. It is easy to get lost in this. Stars, singularities, nebulae. You will discover an interesting area each time you walk past this painting. That is our gift to you. A new galactic journey with every glance.
Acrylics, gold leaf, aerosol, and pigments on aluminium-stretched cotton canvas. Triple varnish and a very unique luxury gloss coat finish!

The feeling of total freedom! No preconceptions. De Baere knows that nature will win on earth. We humans, are only visitors here. This artwork represents the idea of liberations after the storm. Rebirth after chaos. A fresh version of yourself. Transformation. 
 

ASTRAL TRAVELING

60 cm x 70 cm 
Who do we meet, when we venture among the stars? 
Astral traveling, also known as astral projection, is a concept where one's consciousness is believed to separate from the physical body and travel to other realms or dimensions. It's a topic often explored in our circles. We feel as if we travel around a lot at night, or during meditations. We experience soul connections, help from other dimensions, and advice from other beings that function lightyears ahead.

MESSAGES FROM GIZA

80 cm x 100 cm 
On a warm Spanish sunny morning I woke up after a very vivid dream of being at the pyramid of Giza. It was night and the atmosphere was highly mystical. 

But 30 minutes later my husband, Michaël, received a message of our sun’s Godfather with a picture of him at the pyramid of Giza. (we hardly ever communicate with him since he lives in San Diego). What are the odds?! 

Did I dream about being in Egypt because I am so connected to Michael, did I pick it up out of the ether? Did I astral travel to another dimension?

I believe because of our connection (him being in Egypt) and me astral traveling at night a portal was opened and I was able to channel and see the true mystical meaning of the pyramid: An amplifier of subtle energy made available by the highly sacred spot it is built upon. This way humans receive the ability to be connection and communication with higher dimensions and bring healing to themselves & their surroundings. 
I painted my vision on the canvas and tried to convey as much as possible the mystical and divine knowledge given to me that night.
Michaël, my husband, passionate with sacred geometry made a discovery about the link between the 5-pointed & 6-Pointed star, Cube, platonic solids, dimensions & MERKABA and designed the star above the pyramid with the purpose of bringing light to everybody’s own divine design & ability to awaken to their infinite universal power.

DOLPHINS ARE FRIENDS

80 cm x 100 cm 
When Charlotte moved to Spain while being pregnant, she saw a dolphin. Just one. She started painting this dolphin and let go after a while. Months later, with her new born baby, she saw a bunch of dolphins while chilling at the beach. And so she painted again. Some new brush strokes on the dolphin painting. Yet again, she let go of the painting. 

Dolphins took Charlotte trough the waves, all the way to Cuba. They supported her on her trip during a hypnosis session with Ruben Pollaert. Gateways to other realms were in plain sight, she took a leap of faith and went via a portal to another dimension of earth. Why is Cuba so 'protected'? Many personal and global questions. No clear answers and that's okay.
While finishing this painting, many friends started to go on ‘dolphin retreats’ in Egypt. Funny how everything is connected because ‘messages from Giza’ was created during the same years as this one. A pyramid and a dolphin, telling me a story.

BEFORE WE ENTER EARTH

80 cm x 100 cm 
For years Charlotte had encounters with a mystical man from another dimension showing & teaching her what happened before humans came into this fourth dimension of time/space. In the shower, in dreams & at random moments he appeared as if standing right in front of her. At first scared to death she tried to push him away, but gradually she allowed the vision & message to come through. She then decided to paint what the man was trying to convey to her. 

From a humble position the ‘wizard’ installs colors of knowledge in these human beings before their descent to earth. These rituals are ‘the right way’ in comparison to what have been dark rituals  performed by the catholic church. Charlotte asks herself “what the hell are we doing as humans” as the experience on earth could be as powerful & pure like in this image.
Michael decided to install bio geometrical signatures, invented by Dr. PhD, Ibrahim Karim, in this painting. These signatures are designed to harmonize the human body’s subtle energy exchange with its environment. By having your body’s energy field close to these signatures it will start harmonising with your environment and enhance the body’s own healing abilities.
Acrylics, gold leaf, aerosol, and pigments on stretched cotton canvas. Triple varnish.
