#15: Day Schildkret — Beauty, Impermanence & Queering Our Cultural Imagination Artwork

Spaces Between with Al Jeffery

Sitting around the philosophical fire, join Al as he explores integral perspectives and regenerative practices for restoring community in the 21st Century. What does it mean to 'queer the mind,' and live in congruence with the wholeness of who we are, to integrate our parts? In a deeply-connected-yet-fragmented world, Al invites ambitious thinking, deepens ways of feeling, and welcomes broadened epistemologies that may extend our cultural imagination to a more totalising and inclusive horizon. Through elucidating the mutli-dimensionality of the human condition through psychological know-how, philosophical insight, and artistic poetics, Al and the guests he invites attempt to weave a larger story in which to find ourselves and our way, together. How does our view on leadership and relating shift through an embodied developmental lens? How might we contribute to a life-regenerating future from the inside-out? Spaces Between is an open-inquiry into restoring connection in our lives, relations, and communities. Modelling generative dialogue, vulnerability, and courageous conversation, Al weaves not only a heard but felt journey back to connection with self and world 🌏

#15: Day Schildkret — Beauty, Impermanence & Queering Our Cultural Imagination

August 18, 2020 • Day Schildkret • Episode 15

Another queer brother from abroad, Day is internationally known for his work using Morning Altars to inspire thousands around the world to renew their relationship to nature, creativity and impermanence through ritual and the practice of Earth art. Diving into some of the threads of our cultural imagination keeping us at odds with our own wholeness, Day and I explore themes of impermanence, queering masculinity and non-binary ways of being in lived relationality with uncertainty and mystery. In a time exposing rigid patterns of being-together, we dance with the wisdom of queerness in illuminating what it might mean to navigate change and liminality with openness and curiousity.

Join us for a playful exploration of how Earth Art, practices of impermanence and “queering" might support us in our restoration of wholeness.
