A creative person is one who has insight, who can see things nobody else has ever seen before, who hears things that nobody has heard before - then there is creativity. As Osho points out in the preface to this book, historically the creative person has been all but forced to rebel against the society. Stability, conservatism, and "following the rules" have been desirable qualities for centuries, and these qualities were reinforced by the family, the state, and educational institutions of society. Furthermore, creativity has tended to be very narrowly defined as artistic talent, and therefore an option only for a chosen few. Nowadays, the situation has dramatically changed. In today’s world, the ability to respond creatively to new challenges is demanded of everybody from corporate CEOs to "soccer moms."

What is abstract art? “To accept the challenge of the unknown is the only way to grow.”! Experience of creativity is an entry into the mysterious. The artist to reflect reality in a Zen way, to explore spaces untouched by others.

Tantra Bensko
His works are about the rising of the Kundalini, the life force that remains dormant in most people all their lives. For some, a life of dedicated yogic work can cause it to rise up and transform them forever, dramatically. Many other people do have a taste of the experience by having their Kundalini pathway opened more widely in preparation through the exercises, such as intense Tantric work, and pre Kundalini rises up, less forfully and disruptively than the actual Kundalini. When this happens, they experience a new sense of themselves as being large, boundariless beings, blissful, pulsing out of the void moment by moment, shining light, and awareness.

Peter's work is raw yet sophisticated. At times it is primal and childlike, and other times it is simply sublime. I absolutely believe he is redefining contemporary art.

Peter deconstructs the idea of art, pixel by pixel, folding it upon itself, turning it inside out, then placing it back on the table in front of you. It's like origami using tiny dots of air, color and space. I haven't seen anyone else do what he does, we're all busy working with what "is". Peter layers what "isn't" over and over in his hands, giving it form and context. In Peter's work, blue is the new red -- reason is restored.
