.... "Devotion"

In 1979, a photograph taken by a father of his two son’s, became a rare treasure exemplifying everything that America stood for; youth, innocence, passion, conflicted emotions and the breaking down of stereotypes. It is these qualities which make it an image of continual intrigue to those that encounter it for the first time.

It creates a feeling of nostalgia and its attraction lives in the hearts of the viewer. Like the American Gothic, it completely exemplifies a rare and very specific moment in our history. While at the same time illustrating a country wrapped so tightly in its consumerism as to make it sacred.

It resonates in our soul as an illustration of American life. It is not just compelling by its charm, but by its truth. Some see two kids dressed as their favorite rock group, but to others there is a depth in the photo that transcends this, expressing the unifying qualities music and Art as a whole can have.

It is the evolution through decades that transformed this simple photograph into a masterpiece of American contemporary art.

Contained in one day, there is enough love to free the entire world, and enough fear to enslave it. Every minute holds everything you need to recreate yourself, or completely destroy yourself.

For us at Central Elements , Art breeds a profound place in this landscape of grace and terror. It allows us to create sacred space to digest the emotions that dictate our personal politics. Central Elements is a celebration of that sacred space, as well as a gifted and soulful example of it.

Central Elements and all featured here share the common idea amongst ourselves that at this time more than ever there is a need for a healing of the nations of this planet. We have chosen to contribute to this goal through creative expression, as we feel this form of expression is the Central Element in the souls progression towards enlightenment and consciousness which thereby stretches out and affects the world as a whole.

Within this site you will meet and hopefully connect with people forging their own way in their craft. We graciously share with you these leaders, healers, teachers, lovers, aficionados, and creative neurotics.

Central Elements, founded in 2002 by Alexx Thompson, was formed with the desire to present a very special handful of today’s and tomorrow’s stars. Stars in the sense of the incredibly original, creative way they have chosen to impact their communities and the world around them through Art, Spoken Word, Film, or Music.

We are a Tribe,

a family of souls with the calling of artistically expressing ourselves that’s so intense, it has become us.

And we welcome you.
