An institution must creatively shape its awareness. Re-examination and the ongoing shaping of awareness are paramount to the nourishing of students to bring out the best in themselves.
Educational institutions currently emphasize their interrelating of the Arts to the Sciences and the Technologies
A s well as the acquisition of the very necessary practical and technical skills required to serve the needs of the changing world. ”A Shaping of Awareness” attends to the unique and essential roll of creative process. Creativity requires expanding the limitations of our current perceptions. “A Shaping of Awareness” look at ways in which creativity differs yet complements innovation. While exploring the very nature of creativity and its relationship to community, global development, and sustainability, we examine approaches to, and the practice of, creativity and the further shaping of our awareness.
“A Shaping of Awareness” some presentation highlights:
• The value of being aware of ourselves, our deeper selves, our potential selves
• Identifying current perceptions…that which is real, that which is perceived as true
• Differentiating between innovation and creativity?
• What impedes us? What propels us?
• The relationship of creativity to the expansion of current perceptions.
• The skills requisite to expanding perceptions and accessing creative process
• The roll within creative process of intellect and of thinking
• The importance and the necessity of recognizing, and continually finding balance
• The risks and the reward of engaging the creative, and avoiding the pitfalls
• The availability of creativity to us all
Throughout the presentation “A Shaping of Awareness” attention focuses on embracing our infinite potentials. And how does the presentation accomplish this task?
• Through an experience of a group of sculpture, expressing complexity visually through simplicity in form.
• Through narrative, vicariously experiencing a sculpting journey
• Through dialogue, bringing awareness and meaning to journey
• Through the sculpture pieces, taking on more meaning with the accompanying discourse
The intention of the presentation is to provide a deep and meaningful experience that is both nourishing and inspiring. We are all sculptors. Each person with their unique life experiences has the capacity to expand the limitations of current perceptions and share their unique gift with the world. Increased awareness, along with creativity, will serve as valuable assets on all of our journeys.
