Our Selves as Art
The Indian word for art, shilpa, embraces a wide range of activities that include not only what in the west would be called crafts, but also ritual and such skills as cooking, perfumery, love-making, and engineering.
John Lane, from "Snake's Tail Full of Ants" Artlife understands the self, our very being, as the ultimate transformative work of art, and so sees Artlife process activities as a demonstration of what it is to be most fully human. This potential exists whether we know it, and whether we cultivate it, or not; it has always been part of our humanness. To choose to step into this territory of ourselves that has long been waiting for our curiosity and participation, is to open the door wide to actualizing more of what we are innately capable of being. |
