NEW TALK/DISCUSSION


"Light and Shadow in Life…, As in Art"
a Spontaneous and Natural Duality.


Borrowing words and drawing parallels with Art in one of the riches metaphors: Art as Life – Life as Art… Harnessed, Propelled, Screeching, Subdued, Birthed, Choked, Straightened, Comforted, Contorted, Twisted, Explosive, Generous, Balanced, Retracted, Restrained, Flooded, Disturbed, Unpredictable, Soothed, Angular, Lavish, Fluent, Heightened, Feral, Intellectual, Emotional, Complaisant, Harmonious, Controversial, Dazzling, Vibrant, Still, Chaotic

Assessing and addressing today’s trends of our lives unpredictable, chaotic, spontaneous, natural and naturally transforming/evolving duality. A choice at every breath: Light or shadow? Light and Shadow?

Or, in much simpler, more practical terms… When “Nice” becomes a goal, does Integrity fall by the wayside?

I am looking forward to a lively discussion afterwards!
