Dana
Lynne Andersen gives a Keynote address at London Festival
Dana Lynne Andersen
addressed a packed audience at the 1st Annual Inspirational
Arts Festival in London on May 1st, 2006.
From the Festival's
site:
Dana will give a talk on the theme: "Art
and the Evolution of Consciousness", May 1st, 1:00pm:
"...The arts have always led the shifting of cultural paradigms,
and now, just as in the Renaissance, a growing number of artists
are seeking a deeper source of inspiration and a higher vision
of what the Arts are meant to be. Individually, creative process
is a profound vehicle for accessing higher and deeper states
of awareness. Collectively, the arts have a unique ability to
rouse the latent higher capacities which propel the evolution
of humanity. Discover why and how the Arts can transform our
world."
Dana Lynne Andersen, M.A., is a multi-media
artist, playwright and teacher with degrees in philosophy and
consciousness studies. Her paintings, often very large in size,
explore the swirling forces of energy that underlie matter and
seek to reveal life's numinous mystery. She believes that as
our "depth perception" expands - billions of galaxies
discovered in our lifetime! - it is also essential to expand
perception inwardly to the vastness within. She is founder of
Awakening Arts. Awakening Arts is
a worldwide artists' network that supports uplifting the human
spirit and awakening higher consciousness through the arts.
Awakening Arts Institute nurtures “awakening artists”
through an online resource nexus, traveling workshops and exhibitions,
retreats and residencies, symposiums, and a small fine art press.
It unites artists throughout the world who are seeking a deeper
source of inspiration and aspiring to a higher vision of what
the arts are meant to be.
