“Sand” was Val Kilmer’s audition piece for Juilliard, which resulted in him gaining acceptance as the youngest student ever admitted to their drama department. Halfway through the line “I’m sorry can I start over”, when his auditioners responded he knew he had done a convincing job of delivering a believable performance. Val then went on to become one of the most prolific actors of his generation. This piece is an expression of the beginning of Val’s journey as both an actor and poet, really the only choice for Val’s SuperRare Genesis.

Home footage of Val as a young actor in training appears from the shadows of this portrait of Val performing his iconic role of the poet rocker Jim Morrison by the accomplished painter Michele Petrelli @michelepetrelli https://superrare.com/mpetrelli The Award-Winning actor poet Laurence Fuller @laurencefuller gives voice to these words and produced the new media aspects of the piece. https://superrare.com/laurencefuller Produced by BLKPRL Studios @BLKPRLStudios & Kamp Kilmer @kampkilmer

The follies of youth reflected in memories as man faces the eternal, what will he say? This piece is an iconic collaboration between Val Kilmer @valkilmer, Tomer Peretz @TomerPeretzart, and award-winning actor poet Laurence Fuller @LaurenceFuller. A true collaboration, the conception of this brilliant piece was started at Peretz’s studio where he meticulously oil painted Kilmer on canvas as “incomplete”. The piece was then delivered to Kilmer who wrote an original poem inspired by the piece, and painted and signed by hand onto the canvas. Once complete, the spoken word, performed by Fuller, was incorporated, and the mixed media cinematic elements were constructed to bring the essence of the masterpiece to life.

A mind melts away ~ dissolving within the loss and pain of a Utopian society. The fatty iris, swirls to create the illusion of man in his creation ~ a poetic portrait of truth, dropping to the floor with its ideals. Dripping on sanded lips, it will be a different day in heaven.
