.Who would have imagined that pieces of driftwood, chosen from a sea of hundreds of thousands, would upon being carved, serve as catalysts to the awakening of a sense ability This sense ability we humans possess yet we have lacked conscious awareness. Consequently, we have neglected and under-utilized our ability.
I began an exploration that would eventually shape my awareness. It was through sculpting pieces of wood that I began to recognize that I, too, was being sculpted, being altered. Impressions were being formed. Meanings were being shaped. The sculpting journey evolved into remarkable experiences, remarkable transformations.
I am fascinated by a powerful yet under-utilized sense ability that we humans seldom talk about. Having had the privilege of having my own awareness shaped through my glimpse of the power of intuitive creativity, I feel compelled to share the experience, all the while appreciating that this topic has prickly edges that will have to be handled with a good deal of sensitivity.
Humans possess an intuitively creative sense ability. This ability is, for the most part, under-utilized and misunderstood, yet it is one of the most powerful human assets. Increased awareness and utilization of the up-welling of creative expression may provide pivotal access to ideation for humanity’s thriving, evolution and possibly survival.
This journey toward a shaping and a reshaping of awareness involves the expressions of a strange animal, commonly referred to as an artist. This artist smooths and shapes pieces of wood. This smoothing and this shaping have led to observations, then realizations. These observations involve the discovery of powerful attributes available through the utilization of intuitive creativity.
I am that artist.
