#128 Art as Sacred Practice (with Cheryl Ntumy)
Manage episode 381539262 series 2783503
Cheryl Ntumy is deeply committed to art as a vehicle for self-understanding and collective cultural growth. Her writing ranges widely, traversing everything from romance to speculative fiction. She speaks powerfully to writing as a journey into true empathy and understanding of yourself and others - across cultures, across identities, across time and space.
We have a rich conversation about the ways in which art is "a kind of religion" that has its roots in the beautiful diversity of human cultures, while also transcending them. Art points us towards the universal truths underlying existence. And accessing those truths is an act of monastic-like devotion: always returning to the page, to the canvas, to the studio, to the instrument.
If you long for a life with more meaning and creativity, then join us for this deep dive into the sacred practice of making art.
