hallucinogenic eye


On a wall that curves with the pavement in St. James, Trinidad, West Indies, a fresco is mounted depicting many faces within a face. The artist may have been assisted by a hallucinogenic drug such as weed to give his interpretation of a man suffering from multi personalities. The mural looks as if it is a vision of mount Rushmore. And then, there is the horse-sea-serpent as skims to the surface...or is it a camel ? What ever the concept, the artist shows his knack for faces combined with a mixture of concrete and white paint to give the fresco a quality of a relief.

A study on the benefits of cannabis showed that vision could be improved as with the reasoning behind Jamaican fishermen who smoked it to alert a higher sense of their peripheral vision at night.
