In our creative work, we explore the relationships between physical experience, mind, imagination and soul, between individual, others, and group. Our creativity emerges from these explorations.
| Three Levels of Self Awareness: |
In our creative explorations, we tap into the physical, mental, and emotional levels of awareness.
| Physical: |
Drawing from our physical responses and senses, using our body as a creative tool
|
| Mental: |
Nurturing our imaginations and creative thinking skills
|
| Emotional: |
Expressing our passions and feelings, both positive and negative, in our creative work; remaining open to our intuition
|
|
| Active Listening: |
If we develop our communication and conflict resolution skills, our ability to give and receive feedback in non-critical ways, and can be fully engaged when we are listening to others, our potential for creative breakthroughs expands.
|
| Dialogue and Collaboration: |
When we engage in dialogue and share our ideas as a collective group, our work has the opportunity to further flourish in new, unexpected directions.
|
| Sensory and Problem Solving Games: |
We play games, we stay loose, we use our imaginations, explore our sensual experiences, and uncover inspirations and solutions.
|
| Perception Challenges: |
How do we interpret the world around us and give meaning to the events in our lives? How do we see others? How do we decipher the challenges in our lives? Questioning our perceptions can often help us to see the world around us, our work, and others through a different eye and gain new insights.
|
| 'Out in the City' Assignments: |
We discover new places and new experiences and through them new motivations, inspiration, ideas.
|
| Fun, Play: |
Pablo Picasso once said, "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist when he [or she] grows up". To be and remain creatively engaged and alive, to believe that anything is possible, as children believe, we must toss away the rules and social expectations, relax, be ourselves, have fun, and play.
