About Us
Let’s start with the biggest question we get: Why call this creative undertaking Altered States Studios? We believe that creating art and bringing ideas to life can profoundly alter the viewer’s state. Recall a moment when you encountered something new or used something that shifted your perspective. Imagine a piece of art transforming your mood from sad to happy.
This transformative power is the essence of Altered States Studios. We’re fascinated by aliens and concepts some might find unusual. This influence is reflected in our logo, featuring a flying saucer and the ‘E’ & ‘T’ letters in a different color – a nod to ‘ET.’ The logo symbolizes our approach: not taking everything too seriously and infusing fun into all our creations and activities.
