“This is why we create and collect, making physical the ephemeral. Giving weight to emotion, and the transience of being human.”
There is a connection between our inner world and our outer world: beauty within, beauty without. This is why we create and collect, making physical the ephemeral. Giving weight to emotion, and the transience of being human.
The world is troubled because we are troubled. The Earth is ill because we are. In contrast, the world is beautiful, as we are beautiful. Two realities that co-exist in equanimity. What we think, we see more of, what we do, we get. The creative endeavor is a mirror, window, and door to who we are and what the world can be, and is. If we can destroy through the creative mind, we can create, better.
“For the sake of the ego, we sometimes create what does not fully serve us as humans.”
Since the onset of the industrial revolution, we have lost our connection to the Earth, wonder, and magic. And with the advent of AI and VR, this disconnection is increasing. We are widening the gap between who we are, where we are, and each other. For the sake of the ego, we sometimes create what does not fully serve us as humans. The creative mind can be a tool for change, both negative and positive depending on where the ego lies.
It is through the hand created that we connect to others and ourselves, shining light and easing our passage onward.
