Dimensional Shift is inspired by the ideas of openness and flow. Some pieces I create come from a clear intention, but this one was completely improvised—born spontaneously during a visionary experience. I simply wanted to tap deeply into the inner realm I was witnessing, allowing my awareness to guide the direction of the artwork without overthinking it.
Looking back on it years later, it’s fascinating to reflect on the message that revealed itself: a human figure, activated by energy, with outstretched arms, inviting me to move deeper into the unknown. This energy focuses in on a brain, symbolizing full consciousness, which then gives way to its own abstract visionary moment—an unfolding of awareness beyond thought.
The spiritual lesson I take from Dimensional Shift is that it reminds us to let go, to stay open to new experiences and change, and to accept those experiences with love. When we approach life this way, new dimensions of experience unfold naturally—and we are invited into ever deeper layers of our own consciousness.

About Samuel Farrand
Samuel Farrand began creating psychedelic art in 1998 following his first visionary experience, but it wasn’t until 2007 that his visual focus began to crystallize into the body of work he is known for today. Inspired by the psychedelic styles of Alex Grey, Robert Venosa, Victor Moscoso, Luke Brown, and Xavi Panneton, his artistic path was deeply influenced by their ability to unlock new visual languages rooted in consciousness.
His work blends neon color palettes, intricate mandalas, and layered patterns to tell symbolic, often personal stories. Each piece carries intention—sometimes spiritual, sometimes emotional, always deliberate.
Over the years, Farrand’s art has been featured in exhibitions with collectives like Threyda and alongside artists such as Android Jones, Jake Amason, Glass Crane, and Justin Totemical. His visuals have appeared in immersive environments at Burning Man and psytrance festivals around the world, as well as in collaboration with renowned projection artist Jonathan Singer, known for his visuals on the Grateful Dead’s Fare Thee Well tour. His artwork has also accompanied live sets by Trip-Hop pioneer Dave Tipper.
Beyond the festival scene, Farrand’s creations have found homes in larger installations at Meow Wolf locations in Las Vegas and Santa Fe. A standout moment in his career came when one of his works was featured on the cover of Ayahuasca: A Test Pilot’s Handbook by Chris Kilham, a moment made even more significant when it appeared live on CNN.
