ADVENTURES IN PERCEPTION AND THE VISUAL ARTS SERIES
The Power
of Art
Unleashing Seeing as a Way of Personal Transformation
A WORD FROM KD
An invitation to see differently
Ever look at a painting and not see what everyone else sees?
Ever look at a painting and see only what you’ve been told to see?
Here is an opportunity to open your perception
THE SEMINAR
Exploring the unseen world of the visual arts
We each see in a unique and original way. What we see is affected by who we are. This seminar is an opportunity to explore who we are as bio-psycho-spiritual beings — and how this shapes us as artists and as observers.
Through lecture, story, dialogue, and experimentation, we will explore the interrelationship of the forces that quietly compose every act of seeing:
I
Perception
V
Language
II
Sensation
VI
Non-Verbal Communication
III
Bodily Structure
VII
Meditative States
IV
Movement
VIII
Emotion
THE GOAL
To cultivate a richer experiential and theoretical understanding of who we are as human beings — an understanding that develops greater awareness and responsiveness, and brings greater vitality and authenticity to making and understanding the visual arts.
