Moksha Family Art Collective Fair 2009

The Moksha Family Art Collective is a powerful light in Miami.

For years, Moksha has provided a hub for like-minded headz. Headz who bath in a unified collective consciousness. Headz who see truth and beauty in art and music and in each other.

Moksha’s message and events consistently promote peace, understanding, tolerance, and good memorable times.

This year’s Fair was no exception. The 59th street warehouse in Little Haiti transformed into a Mecca of visionary art and consciousness topped with intelligent day panel discussions and an open gallery free to the public.

Moksha had on exhibit original art from Alex Grey, Mark Henson, Fred Weidmann, Shrine, Alison Grey, and more.

On Friday night, a bus tour of the satellite

Art Basel expositions trolled around town.

The bus hit up places like Scope and Nada in steezy-style.

Moksha’s pimped-out whip, recently back from a cross-country pilgrimage always pushes the on-the-road experience further….

On Saturday night, the warehouse opened itself up to one of the dopest jams of the year.

Outside, hundreds gathered in a Dr. Seuss like playground.

Inside the warehouse, with Bluetech on the decks, and Alex Grey painting live, there was about a twenty-minute window that’s almost hard to describe. One could feel a sense of self in combination with a collective truth and beauty. It was downright dirty-ass fun tickling every spirit in the room. Every boom from the deejay. Each stroke of brush was fun. And with each strobe of light flashing, your heart beat as one. You would’ve had to have been there. But that’s the thing. You were, in spirit.

It’s easy and cliche’ for the mainstream to write-off the Moksha Family Art Collective as granola crunching Burners bent on partying who need a ticket to the vision, but what’s missing consistently is the simple message that’s right there: Be aware. That’s it.

Awareness.

Look. Did you see it. It’s right there. We’re all here. Simple.

No drugs needed. No special pass.

It’s beautiful to celebrate consciousness through a gathering of music and art.

Don’t judge it. Feel it.

Don’t label it. It could just as easily label you.

Just see it. That’s the evolution. That’s the vision.

Moksha in Miami brings two quotes to mind, both by Hermann Hesse, both from Steppenwolf:

‘Most men will not swim before they are able to…They are born for the solid earth, not for the water.”

or better yet this one:

“MAGIC THEATER ENTRANCE NOT FOR EVERYBODY. I tried to open the door, but the heavy old latch would not stir. The display was over. It had suddenly ceased, sadly convinced of its uselessness. I took a few steps back, landing deep into the mud, but no more letters came. The display was over. For a long time I stood waiting in the mud, but in vain. Then, when I had given up and gone back to the alley, a few colored letters dropped here and there, reflected on the asphalt. I read: FOR MADMEN ONLY!”

At the end of the day, events like these do not put themselves together. They require a ton of work from a team of people. There’s a lot of planning and designing and rigging and organizing that goes unseen. And at the end of the day, headz who live in Miami should feel grateful and blessed for the Family behind the scenes bringing the rawness to the surface for those of us who can see. Cuz the magical show unfortunately isn’t for everyone . . .

Miami is still in its infancy when it comes to real art/real artists; but is growing up! We all are growing up as the consciousness shift takes place; and for many living in their “comfort zones” a consciousness shift is not a pleasant happening. Visionary art represents the visions of that shift; Alchemy Art represents the activation of inner transfiguration that give birth to creative actions after the visions; the actions of thinkers out of the box, out of “the tunnel vision”. Actions structuring the new paradigm where nature and men come to one, and where prosperity includes everyone!
The Moksha Art Fair visionary movement is pioneering in Miami the expansion of the VISIONS taking place in the headz of such world wide visionary artist as ALEX GREY; he is “downloading” in pictorial language; about consciousness what is indescribable in words; and he had set the trend for many other visionary artists downloading the most amazing imagery to help the evolution of human consciousness.
Bravo! for all the work behind that was needed to put together such an AMAZING Moksha Art Fair 2009; the expansion is happening! Chia Ortegon, Alchemy Artista
