Path of Value

This piece is a layered journey into how we perceive wealth, purpose, and personal worth—and how we break free from programmed illusions.

The background is made of duplicated images of $20 bills, each with a money band fused into the print—a single, inseparable image. That fusion is intentional. It speaks to how the illusion of wealth and the limitations of the system are designed as one. You're not just held in place—you're taught to believe the cage is real.

But beneath the surface, a vibration stirs. Painted between the bills and the money bands is a red circular ripple—seven rings deep, like a frequency wave or a target. It appears as if it exists in that sliver of space where truth tries to break through illusion a pulse of awareness trapped between layers of constructed value.

Above that vibration is a purple path—the quiet energy of purpose, the intuitive current that guides the soul. And above that, a black labyrinth spreads like an aerial view of a game map or modern day bunker—compartmentalized, complex, full of detours. Inside each room of the maze are cut-out words and phrases from magazines, carefully selected and placed to reflect the programming of the mind and the journey to rewire it with wisdom.

The starting point of the path is low. The finish is halfway up—because this journey doesn't end. Near the finish is a phrase: 'To the next level."

This entire piece is a metaphor:
True value is not found on the surface. It's uncovered through vibration, intention, and awareness.
It's not about chasing money. It's about remembering your worth.
