Ancient Frequencies, 2026

Sadie Weis  

A celestial event unfolds in this striking composition. The artwork captures a descent of light and color. A central spire of deep indigo and violet surges upward. It pierces a soft white void. This vertical energy suggests a cosmic collision or a sudden atmospheric rupture. 
The artist merges scientific curiosity with abstract imagination. The piece explores the boundary between the visible and the invisible. Shimmers of magenta and gold flicker at the base. They ground the ethereal form in a burst of warmth. 
A luminous glow crowns the peak. This focal point mimics the intensity of a distant star or a falling meteor. The use of screen printing and neon elements adds a contemporary brilliance. It creates a vibration that feels both digital and organic. 
The composition relies on a delicate balance of weight and weightlessness. Faded streaks of light radiate outward. They evoke the feeling of a long-exposure photograph of the night sky. The resulting image is a meditative study on cosmography. It transforms a scientific phenomenon into a poetic visual experience through a palette of cool blues and vivid pinks.

Weis plays with the reality of what a painting is and what a silkscreen can be, as she creates her own unique hybrid method of painting and silkscreen printmaking (typically done in simulated multiple editions) through the process of printing through a blank silkscreen, deemed 'Polymonotype', creating a multi-layered fusion of these aspects. These works portray various talismans and imagery based on vivid dreams of the artist.
