- Escape Determinism - 1/1 by Luke Gr1ndhouse | 2024. Made with AI, Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom, hand drawing. If free will is an illusion, what is this awareness? Identity scattered into ancestral dust. Yet, I feel. Feel, escape. Not away, but in the depths within. About 'Lost Arcadia'. The sense of transcendent mystery experienced when dreaming gets instantly trapped between the net of our ego and social overstructures when awake. The collection wants to be a compendium of 'oneiric philology': the attempt to rescue the core of our true identity through the fragile dream relics we can still recall in our conscious minds. At the same time, Lost Arcadia depicts the heroic struggle to reconcile our inner realities and the nostalgia for a lost - or, perhaps, never existed - world.
