Vitamin W: The Wonder Factor, Altered States,” curated by Koan-Jeff Baysa, seeks to articulate the connections between contemporary art and higher consciousness through works that address human experiences of spirituality, ecstasy, rapture, healing, and the sublime.

Nineteen artists are participating in the exhibition: Yun Bai, Monica Castillo, Rodney Dickson, Anne Dushanko Dobek, Fred Fleisher, Shingo Francis, Asha Ganpat, Lynne Dian Gulezian, Ruth Hardinger, James Jack, Jeremy Kost, David Meanix, Pablo Orendain, Hermes Payrhuber, Michael Rees, Loreen Rowley, Michael Somoroff, Lynn Sullivan, and Carlo Vialu.

“The vitamin metaphor was purposefully deployed,” says Dr. Baysa, “to encapsulate the idea of an external or pharmaceutical intervention in the creation of altered states, but also to abstract and implicate all conditions that are internalized and conducive to being and becoming ‘wonder-full.’”
