Mickey Hart

Mickey Hart, drummer/percussionist for Grateful Dead and Dead & Co. is renowned for creating a new art form he terms "Vibrational Expressionism." He is a pioneering rhythmic artist who uses subwoofers and other instruments to manipulate paint with sound, creating unique, synthetic works that delve into the connections between music, art, and the cosmos.

His innovative art transcends traditional boundaries, offering a multisensory experience that highlights the harmony of the universe through the interplay of rhythm and color. Hart's groundbreaking work continues to captivate and inspire, exploring the profound vibrational links that bind us all. His latest series, “Roadmaps to Higher Consciousness,” is a profound exploration of art as a transformative power.

Each painting serves as a guide to unseen realms, turning visual light into representations of the artist’s conscious and subconscious experiences. Using vibrations instead of traditional brushes, these works infuse motion and energy, evoking the unpredictable flow of nature and acting as psychopomps—guides not to the afterlife but to elevated states of being. Birthed through a process of "self-illumination," these vibrant, living entities engage viewers in a personal journey of discovery and introspection, inviting them to interpret its complex tapestry of colors and shapes. Through these works, Hart redefines the canvas as a medium of psychic and spiritual travel, offering a gateway to transcendental experiences and a deeper understanding of existence.

Hart’s art will be seen in its most vibrant form on the outside shell of Sphere in Las Vegas throughout the Dead and Company residency.
