BLISSFUL VORTEX

Blissful Vortex is a vibrant 28-page artbook zine created by artist and healer Rebecca Conran and artist and poet Danamism. This collaborative project merges intuitive wisdom, poetic insight, and psychedelic, abundantly colorful collage and painting to offer readers a multi-sensory journey of inspiration and aspiration. Blending the mystical with the artistic, Blissful Vortex invites you to explore a realm where healing meets creative expression—each page a portal into beauty, depth, and transformation.

Volume 1: A Ripple on the Corpse of Time explores the profound theme of duality—the tension and harmony between the mortal and immortal aspects of being human. How do we ground ourselves in the physical, finite reality of life while honoring the infinite mystery that pulses beyond it? This inaugural volume dives deep into the paradox of existence, using visual and poetic language to explore what it means to live fully in the space between the temporal and the eternal.
