Explorer’s Club: Inner Landscapes to Other Worlds with Martina Hoffmann

FREE EVENT

Dear Ram Dass Explorers,

We are thrilled to invite you to a special online gathering featuring the extraordinary visionary artist Martina Hoffmann!

Martina’s work invites us into her inner landscapes, exploring the sacred and the fantastic through her stunning imagery. During this gathering, she will share insights from her artistic journey, discuss the transformative power of art, and reflect on how creative expression can deepen our understanding of consciousness and the human experience.

This gathering promises to be an inspiring experience filled with artistic exploration and community connection. We will listen to a talk by Martia, discuss in breakout sessions, and connect as a group.

We look forward to seeing you there and embarking on this artistic journey together!

Martina Hoffmann is a visionary artist and sculptress celebrated for her profound contributions to contemporary Visionary Art, particularly within the psychedelic movement. Born in Germany and partially raised in Cameroon, West Africa, she honed her artistic skills under the tutelage of Professor Kiefer and sculptor Professor Spelmann at the Goethe University in Frankfurt. Over her 30-year collaboration with the Fantastic Realist Robert Venosa, Martina created a body of work that offers intimate glimpses into her inner landscapes, merging the fantastic with the sacred in a realistic style that emphasizes the ‘Universal Woman’ within an expansive cosmos.

Martina’s influence extends beyond the canvas, as she is a key contributor to the psychedelic discourse, particularly through her writings and collaborations with prominent figures such as Stanislav Grof. In her work, including contributions to Dying to Know and Consciousness Research & Understanding Art, she explores the intersection of art, consciousness, and the transformative power of psychedelics. She is currently part of the exhibition “Ayuahasca & Art of the Amazon” at the Sainsbury Centre in Norwich, initially part of the ’Shamanic Visions’ exhibition that was on display at the Musée Du Quai Branly in Paris, France for 6 months/

Her artwork and insights challenge societal norms surrounding death and dying, inviting viewers to embrace the mysteries of life through the lens of expanded consciousness. Martina has spoken at influential conferences, such as ‘Estados Modificados De Consciencia’ in Mexico and ‘The Promethean Impulse’ at the HR Giger Museum in Switzerland, where she articulates how art can illuminate the journey of life and death. Her work has been published in numerous books and magazines, and she is represented in prestigious collections, including the NAIA Museum in France. Currently, she maintains studios in both the USA and France, where she continues to inspire through her powerful imagery and reflections on the psychedelic experience.

A Ram Dass community exploring non-ordinary states of consciousness, (psychedelics), spirituality, and science.

Step into a realm of extraordinary – join these free community gatherings as we delve into pivotal movements within the psychedelic renaissance while paying homage to the enduring legacy of Ram Dass, a trailblazing icon in this field. Our gatherings will include, yet transcend, the conventional discourse on psychedelics as therapy and healing. In addition, we embark on explorations of expanded consciousness, guided by the themes of awe, transcendence, union, and beyond. Journey with us as we navigate psychedelics in the contexts of spirituality, science, and the creativity impulse – a key component for addressing the profound questions that shape both our personal journeys and the world at large. Through a blend of archival talks by Ram Dass, engaging interviews with contemporary visionaries in the field, live audience Q&A sessions, and group discussions, our gatherings serve as catalysts for mutual learning and growth. Join us on this transformative odyssey towards a deeper understanding and collective evolution.”
