WOTA #267 - Something About Love & Myth

In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between love, myth, and the creative process. These two elements often work behind the scenes in art, subtly shaping our work and giving it deeper meaning. We dive into how love and myth show up in unexpected ways and why they are essential to unlocking true creative expression. By recognizing and embracing these forces, artists can tap into something profound and transformative.

Key Points:

• Love in Creativity: Discover how love—whether it’s for the work itself, the process, or the subject—becomes the foundation for authentic and meaningful art.

• The Role of Myth: Understand myth not as a grand illusion, but as a source of meaning-making that permeates our work and helps us make sense of the world through storytelling.

• Finding Meaning: Explore the unavoidable search for meaning in art, and how, even when we try to avoid it, meaning finds its way through our work.

• Love as an Access Point: Learn how asking the simple question, “Where is the love?” can open up deeper layers of creativity and reveal hidden truths about your art and yourself.

• The Mythical Element in Art: Investigate the mysterious, almost magical, quality of myth in the creative process—how it serves as a foundation for stories and symbolism in ways we may not even realize.

• Connecting to Your Inner Self: By embracing both love and myth, you can tap into a more authentic version of yourself, allowing for true creative expression that resonates on a deeper level.

Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that delves into the hidden forces behind creativity, helping you unlock the love and myth within your own artistic journey.
