About

Alexander Andromeda explores the ideas of mysticism and cosmism in his art, employing an extremely realistic style to emphasize the “otherness” of his protagonists and landscapes. According to reviews, his art possesses a “unique magnetic quality”: it seems that inhabitants of other worlds are looking at you through his paintings, and their eyes radiate power, deep understanding, and infinite compassion.

Meditation

Alexander is a very experienced Buddhist practitioner, and he teaches his own meditation classes. Alexander says that, while meditating, he sees vivid and luminous images that he eagerly transfers onto canvas.

"I have a large painting, 6.5 by 7 feet, called Andromedian Madonna. This is my talisman. When I teach meditation, it serves as a focal point and enhances meditation experience for my students and myself. Many people see this image in their sleep, and she guides them to the Light."

"Recurring motifs of my work are centered on light, harmony, and purpose. This is my conscious choice. An artist has power to influence the world, and he or she responsible for the social and spiritual impact of his or her creations."

Gates of Shambala

Oil on Canvas, 80х100

by Alexander Andromeda

The painting of the magnificent and majestic mount Kailash, made during our Meditative Art Creation reality show, brilliantly captures the atmosphere of solemnity and purity surrounding the legendary pilgrimage site.

For Eastern religions, Kailash is more than just a mountain: it is a pillar of the world and the entrance to the pure land of Shambala. Every year thousands of pilgrims come here to complete a 52 km walk around the mountain – a journey that is both outward and inward.
