From the Murks of the Sultry Abyss
A follow up of White Fluffy Clouds, Brandon Boyd has released his new piece of artwork. From the Murks of the Sultry Abyss is packed with Brandon's creations of photographs, paintings, drawings, and journal entries.
Here's the origin of the title:
There was also a book which came out in the market authored by "Brandon Boyd." But Brandon Boyd has cleared the issue that it was not his. He has only authored two books so far: White Fluffy Clouds and From the Murks of the Sultry Abyss.
"From the Murks of the Sultry Abyss" is a small piece of a quote from Carl Jung. He is one of the most highly respected and highly scrutinized Psychologists and in my opinion, Philosophers, of our time. The bulk of the statement is referring to the 'archetype' and man's quest to understand the images he sees in his mind's eye. But I interpreted it in a far more simple manner. I have always seen my mind as a cellar of sorts. A dark, dank basement that held secrets and memories and it was accessible to me only in very specific circumstances; as in a trance, expressive, or artistic state. The things that are retrieved from this cellar were of the highest order, and if properly understood, could be relocated into the 'Attic' so to speak. Transcendence through the artistic process, as it were. So by retrieving these images "...From the Murks of the Sultry Abyss," I am making maps for my roads to higher awareness. Yeah, I am a cheeseball. And proud of it.
-Brandon Boyd
