The focus of Fellner’s present work, Imaginary Realms, reveals an endless search for the abstractions of reality, involving the macro photography of stones and crystals. Influenced by the nineteenth- and twentieth-century art movements of Impressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism, he is engaged in an ongoing exploration of the imagination.

My methodology involves the visual exploration of stones and crystals that store information revealing evocative forms and patterns…The intent of this work [Imaginary Realms] is to present a series of Abstract Expressionist images that can invigorate the minds of the observers, evoking concepts and dreams that may traverse space, time, and dimension. Serving as catalysts, the images are intended to inspire observers to partake in their own visual journeys and to provide meaningful messages. Ultimately, there is the offered propensity for stimulating the observers’ curiosity, imagination, and a personal search for universal insights.” —George Fellner
