“Guided by his own metaphysical value-judgements (explicit or otherwise), an artist selects, out of the bewildering chaos of human experience, those aspects he regards as indicative of the nature of the universe. Then he embodies them in a sensory-perceptual concrete... The result is a universe in microcosm.”
- Leonard Peikoff, Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand

The human mind has been both glorified and probed for its vastness, complexity, and ingenuity. Artists, through the command of their craft, have the unique ability to bring what they see in their mind’s eye onto the physical canvas, creating microcosms, or little worlds, of the greater human consciousness.

In “Microcosm,” three distinct abstract artists have come together to explore the depths of the human mind and consciousness through their bold and dynamic works.
