What happens when you mix a deep connection to Mother Earth, a
rebellious heart, a powerfully creative spirit, and a background in graphic
design? The artist Calen Blake happens.

His art has been described as “combining a graphic/urban aesthetic with
environmental and existential themes, with the intent to accelerate the
connection of city life, and the natural world in the psyche of his viewers.”

In our words — Calen’s art will stoke your senses and allow you to slip
seamlessly into the infinite fissure between time and space where what is
tangible, and what you once thought to be imaginary, collide. Calen fits
perfectly into inftspaces where we curate art that transcends the senses
and our worlds.

“Through his iconography, he symbolizes the subversive power of nature and the mind while incorporating a thematic grit and graphic imperfection reminiscent of the reality at hand. Blake’s mediums
range from murals and street art to canvases and installations.”

Whether physical or digital, Calen’s art is conscious art. Every piece is
intentionally and meticulously stroked together almost begging the question
“hey, are you paying attention?” — not to his art, but to everything going on in
the physical and metaphysical worlds.

“He has a strong graphic design background that can be seen
in his outlining and floating elements in works like ‘Ariana Hefner’ and ‘Darth
Vader’, which almost literally came to life upon the final stroke.” — SOYYO Magazine

From installations to paintings, to NFT’s, to his Quantum Etheric Messaging
System as GHSTPNTR, Calen will entice you to take a deeper breath of the world you see with your eyes and inspire you to look beyond, into the world
didn’t even know existed. He beautifully bridges the gap between the real
and the virtual universe, making him a perfect artist to help kick off our first
inftspaces event.

We humbly invite you to drop all the things you thought you once knew and
step into an infinite space of tangible and intangible sensory overload. We
will have live NFT minting and everyone in attendance (virtually or
physically) will receive a free NFT (gas fees are on you) — but ya gotta show to get the goods! Our event is being held physically at Innerspace Gallery November 11th — 13th and virtually in Somnium space (account required, it’s free to register), you can attend by RSVP’ing here.

We will see you on the flip side.

“To the infinite and beyond!”
