The Skin of God

Description

Throughout our evolution, we Homo sapiens have used arts, sciences, and religions to pursue knowing, intimacy, and sometimes a dialog with the vastly powerful, awe-engendering inner mysteries of the cosmos, the natural world, and ourselves.  Now old patterns are dissolving and reforming in unimaginable combinations through rapid changes in science, technology, art, and religion. In this series of art-illustrated dialogues, we will examine and discuss the understory of this continuous journey of longings using art, myth, fairytales, film, religion, and science in search of an enhanced understanding of the labyrinthine connections that touch us beneath the thinking level.
