Creative Divination
for adults with some artistic skill
What is Creative Divination?
This workshop explores artistic creativity as an act of divining. Participants are encouraged to consider how they, as artists and creatives, connect with the divine and creative spirit in their lives through guided discussion followed by the creation of a work of intuitive mixed-media art.
Participants will be led through a discussion of the more intuitive and divine elements of art making - art as an act of awakening, art as an act of envisioning, art as an act of diving, art as an act of manifesting; with a specific focus on divining.
Creative Divination can take many forms.
Since the earliest hands touched ochre and conjured images of human and animal spirits on cave walls, painted bodies and faces for ceremonial purposes, drew patterns in the sand, carved pottery from earth and danced beneath the stars we, as humans, have been using our creative powers to connect with the divine.
In this workshop, participants will explore their own creative relationship to the divine through a discussion of creative language (such as symbolism) and exploration of the artistic tools we might use to make manifest our inspirations.
This workshop is limited to 12 participants.
