Synthesia: the Interfusion of the Senses

This work, entitled 'Synthesia,' is an allegorical representation

of the concept of the interfusion of the senses. In metaphysical

systems such as Zen Buddhism, there is an emphasis on the

merging of the senses into a unified harmony. Smell, taste,

touch, etc. all merge in one-pointed meditation.
