Shane Reilly is an Irish artist, working full-time, professionally in the field of fine art, photography, music and video production since 2019. Formerly, he was a fully-qualified, practising architect; as well as a scientific investigator, technical writer and project manager in the biopharmaceutical science field. His personal work mainly attempts to express radical non-duality via the media of traditional fine art, video and music.

Radical non-duality (expressed originally by Tony Parsons in his book The Open Secret) points to the self as illusory and that all there is is just this, what appears to be happening as you read these words. No self nor other. No time nor space. No right nor wrong. No meaning or purpose. Simply the natural great perfection, as ‘it’ is (as referenced in the literature of the Tibetan Buddhist and Bön (Tibetan shamanism) tradition of Dzogchen, which literally translates to ‘the natural great perfection’ in English).


Shane displayed earlier this year at the Art Expo on Pier 39 in New York City and has been featured in numerous art magazines and books.

Currently he is working on an animated feature film about radical non-duality due for release in 2025. He is also finishing a poetry and art book with the award-winning poet and author, Hamant Singh titled Ikhṓr - Ballads in Blood due for release next year on Hidden Hand Press.

Hamant asked Shane to create a piece of art to accompany each poem using his own blood to which Shane agreed as it seemed like the perfect medium for the dark subject matter of the collection.
