I have always begun my lectures saying that art is a visual language—a very powerful language because it is the language of the subconscious mind. I am here to explore the connection between art and our inner world. Why? Because our inner world is a wealth of wisdom that can help us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This amazing non-verbal language reaches us in the territory of our subconscious even when our reasoning left-brain doesn’t understand.
Have you ever wondered what makes a work of art a masterpiece? Why do you think some works of art endure and we lose interest in others? I think it is because the non-verbal message in these works of art is relevant and lasting. The artists who created them were masters of visual language, wielding images as deftly as poets wield words. These artists understood the way in which the subconscious mind perceives and structured their pictures accordingly. Perhaps this is why images capture our imaginations and draw us in as if solving a puzzle or cracking code.
I am using this blog to perform the task of helping others to use and understand art as a point of entry into our inner worlds where that wisdom can meet us and transform us.
