The Garden of the Gods, the story told by FOU

A psychedelic journey through fashion

From the very need to find that escape—that valve that takes us out of where we always are and sometimes want to run from—and thanks to what we’ve developed over time, nature itself pointed us toward the path we needed to take.

That’s how, emerging from the depths of this place, deep within an ancestral forest where sunlight filters through leaves of different sizes—green, brown, and reddish—we found this beautiful and captivating garden. A garden that fills us with answers, that resolves us as we enter a state of absolute tranquility and solemnity.

We named it, enchanted by its essence: the Garden of the Gods. A place where reality dissolves and longings surface to live in fullness.

And from that same spell comes the mystical creature that, as you already know, represents us perfectly: the doped monkey. A primate that reached a higher state of consciousness by encountering the cosmos and understanding so many paradigms gifted to us by the universe, through each person’s own experiences.

An expanded consciousness to reach fulfillment is not “getting high.” It’s about finding answers to a reality that suffocates some and others simply submit to living, but without receiving those answers. It’s opening the door to that new universe—to the paradise that, through art, we want to take you to. Thanks to vibrant colors and psychedelic patterns that evoke the luminous visions experienced under the influence of sacred mushrooms. As Terence McKenna himself said: “The right drug, in the right dose, at the right time, can solve any problem.”

The soft and fluid textures invite you to go beyond the limits of perception, while the intricate details reveal the complexity and beauty of nature. Now, how beautiful can it be for you? That depends on each one.

The time has come for you to transcend the ordinary and connect with that inner self—that “ill-minded” being that only wants to pull you out of that common place.

That’s why McKenna matters to us—because what might appear as an involution allows you to perceive from the essence of origins. We are, or we want to be, Doped Monkeys. Now, how many have the opportunity to achieve it and understand it?

According to the stories, it is said that only those who are “spiritually worthy” can enter this realm—a realm characterized by natural purity, a pure land in the human world, a breath, an escape. Unless one has real karmic merit and connection, one cannot truly reach it.

Now, the path must be walked. Fou wants you to begin it.

The Garden of the Gods continues to nourish the ecstasy associated with life. There, its enigmatic immortals contemplate the sunrise and everything its appearance brings. They live their lives within another “normality,” unaware of the passage of time and immersed in a state of pure happiness, eternally cultivating the gifts of the spirit. They only transmit the mystery of their distant vision and their superhuman powers to the privileged ones who, in their inner journey, have opened the doors of perception to see everything as it truly is: infinite.

To open the doors of perception is to deserve it. Now, have you opened them yet?
