Document Summary

Wasteland movie showing-> you could probably find it online. *2:30 on wednesday in the bottom of bsb* Frida kahlo is an artist who invites us into critical thinking by asking us to seriously reconsider how we approach the world and what is it that we think we know about this world. Blake and kahlo: question perception in order to open up perception in order to open up perception to the diversity of the world and its ongoing transformation. Marriage of heaven and hell: a cleansing of perceptions to see anew. We want to find these connections so we can respond in ethical, justified ways. Constant themes in both: transformation, what blocks us from seeing (prejudice, habit) the invitation for us to see not simply with the bodily eye but also with the visionary eye. Everything that exists is holy, and everything is interconnected.
