Chasing Worlds is a religious altar, characterized by the fusion of various spiritual themes, emotions, and artistic styles. The altar combines sculptural and plotted elements, drawing inspiration from the Chasing Dreams, Chasing Leafs, and Chasing Echoes series of stable diffusion modeling. It presents the symbolic transformation of the human spirit through different stages of life and various planes of existence within the #polyxsupershow.

Chasing Dreams Model of Stable Diffusion: 

The Chasing Dreams Model is trained on artworks that depict the simple joys of life and the importance of gratitude. The series follows the protagonist, Alex, and their friend, Sam, as they embark on a budget-friendly adventure. Through beach scenes, bustling marketplaces, and picturesque landscapes, Chasing Dreams demonstrates that even in the face of limitations, joy can be found in unexpected places. The series encourages the viewer to appreciate fleeting moments of happiness and serves as a reminder of the beauty in everyday experiences. 

 Chasing Leafs Model of Stable Diffusion: 

The Chasing Leafs Model is trained on the mystical and spiritual aspects of the human experience. It follows Alex as they wander through enchanting plains filled with ethereal spirits and ancient altars, guided by the enigmatic poem "Chasing Leafs." As the protagonist explores this otherworldly realm, they uncover hidden knowledge and secrets about the universe. The series invites the viewer to explore the spiritual realm and emphasizes the power of spiritual growth and the importance of embracing the unknown in the pursuit of enlightenment. 

 Chasing Echoes Model of Stable Diffusion: 

The Chasing Echoes Model is an introspective training on artworks that explores the concept of inner strength and self-discovery within the confines of a locked-down apartment. Alex, the protagonist, goes on an emotional journey through their thoughts, memories, and dreams while gazing at the town's skyline from their window. They confront their fears and doubts, ultimately learning valuable lessons about themselves and the world around them. The series serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of self-reflection. 

 Base, tiers, center piece and highlighting elements of the altar

The altar's base is adorned with detailed Laser Wood Cuts of ethereal spirits and ancient symbols from the Chasing Leafs series. These carvings represent the spiritual plane where the soul embarks on a journey of self-discovery and enlightenment. The enigmatic symbols and inscriptions reveal the mysteries of the universe, inviting the viewer to explore the spiritual realm. 

 On the first tier of the altar, a series of DiBond Plots brings the Chasing Dreams series to life. The beach scenes, bustling marketplaces, and picturesque landscapes depict a budget-friendly adventure. These images demonstrate the simple joys of life and the importance of gratitude, encouraging the viewer to appreciate fleeting moments of happiness. 

 The second tier of the altar features Paper Mesh Sculptures inspired by the introspective Chasing Echoes series. These sculptures portray the protagonist, Alex, in various poses of contemplation and self-discovery. The sculptures symbolize the inner strength required to face one's fears and embrace personal growth, reflecting the protagonist's experience within the confines of their locked-down apartment. 

 The centerpiece of the Chasing Worlds altar is a big three by two Floater Frame, depicting a swirling vortex of images from the Chasing Dreams, Chasing Leafs, and Chasing Echoes series. It captures the essence of each series, representing the interconnectedness of the different realms of existence. 

 The altar also features several smaller artistic elements, such as meticulously manipulated Found Objects. These elements highlight various scenes from the three series, further emphasizing the interconnectedness of the spiritual, emotional, and physical planes of existence within the #polyxsupershow

Together, they create a harmonious and cohesive narrative that guides the viewer through the protagonist's journey of personal transformation.
