In her early twenties, Sari experimented with LSD regularly and excessively. She eventually experienced an extended psychotic episode, which had serious consequences on her own life. During this time, she abandoned all her worldly possessions. Sari confronted demons and observed wonders. Transcendent Country of the Mind represents this new perspective. They explore perceptions of otherworldly signs around us. The images tell the story of a world that lives at the back of our minds.
