SAMSKARA's bold idea is to combine visionary art of Android Jones with India's ancient Vedic wisdom to re-examine the inner world of consciousness, offering a unique journey through the self and the cosmos.
SAMSKARA multimedia art exhibition is the greatest sanctuary for getting out of your head and realizing the universe around you.

You can try to explain what Samskara is to someone, but words aren't really enough. The journey makes you question yourself—what you see, who you are, what you fear, and why—making it a unique experience for every person who walks past the mirrored entrance. Samskara at Wisdome was created to spark conversation, even if it's only within yourself.
But for me, Wisdome was like an alternate-reality LA, one without censure or reproach, an escape hatch from the City Of Scorned Angels. My favourite new LA hiding place.
Overall, SAMSKARA is a beautiful, energy provoking art exhibit that seeks to expand our senses in new and exciting ways. Given how much I've now looked into their After Dark series, I would be curious to see how the energy of the exhibit changes depending on which After Dark series one attends. Given the name of the exhibit, I feel that SAMSKARA succeeds in fulfilling the goal of its name meaning. You will not leave the exhibit without taking something with you. That is the meaning of SAMSKARA.

Reviews
I saw a little bit of it before, googling it, but being here and seeing it in person, it is nothing like you can imagine. It is pretty incredible.

I think if you have any creative bone in your body, it will light that on fire. It is the human experience beyond the human eye.
Shane Weafer
I just think it is a place where you can go and let your imagination go wild. You can experience art and culture in a different way that you haven't been able to before.
Jennifer Frederick
This is definetely for everyone. This is an open call for everybody, but you definetely will feel something special if you're on that path of self-discovery, of mind expanding.
