"There are also documents from two physicians of the same period, André Du Laurens and Alfonso Ponce de Santa Cruz, who, independently of each other, saw the same patient with similar, yet even more debilitating symptoms. This gentleman believed not only that he was made of glass, but that specifically he was a glass pitcher containing his very essence."

In this in-person illustrated lecture, Eliza Swann brings to life the symbols of alchemical manuscripts from the fifteenth century onwards. Swann explores figures such as the green lion, peacock, silver queen and solar king, showing how these images functioned as initiatory tools to awaken new ways of seeing, and how this visual language shapes artistic imagination today. Open to all levels, this talk offers a clear and engaging introduction to alchemical symbolism. The evening celebrates the launch of Swann’s new book The Alchemical Imagination: Creativity as Catalyst for Radical Transformation, with signed copies available on the night.

"For New York City and Granada–based artist Carlos Vega, the exhibition “Anima Mundi” (running now through April 18 at 513 W 20th Street) is a demonstration of the alchemical power of lead. Not, however, as a revelation in its mythic reputation to transmute into gold, but as a canvas for storytelling beyond its materiality. Within his large-scale lead works—which are accented with gemstones, postage stamps, Renaissance frames, and other ephemera—Vega conjures soulful scenes that bind the past, present, and future. Ultimately, Vega’s works connect spirituality, nature, and humanity through enchanting symbolism with philosophical punctuation."

"I am working on EP that is inspired by the alchemical process of transformation through 4 stages, nigredo, albedo, citrinitas and rubedo. I have some archetypal imagery on my mind already of what I want but I’d rather work with human than with AI. That is why I am posting here. If you are interested in the topic of alchemical tranformation/psychological growth and have the know how to create somewhat complex animation, then contact me and we’ll see if we can work together."
