My idea of conveying psychedelics and existentialism through these pictures was delivered through the semitransparent layer of people posing to match the artwork in the background of the photos. Psychedelics are actually a class of drug that cause hallucinations and are said to be linked with discovering things “out of body”. I find this concept fascinating, and i wanted to capture this. in the background the psychedelic and out of body vibe is given off by Alex Grey's artwork lined up with the semitransparent layer. These show the idea that there is a "third eye", so to speak, in all of us. My goal from the artist’s perspective was to capture the viewers eye with strong colors, courtesy of alex grey, and guide their eyes with patterns to look at the detail of the artwork in the background and how the art adds an “inside the person” idea to the portrait of the person
