Jim’s artwork was featured in the fall 2022 JACO Virtual Art Exhibit. His creations are breathtaking, and he kindly offered a Second Saturday last November to explain the Jungian concepts that guide his artistry. One piece features a tabernacle, the story of which is enchanting. With that tabernacle as his spotlight, Jim is offering us the gift of a two-part program. In his words:
First, we will start with a discussion of how synchronicity moved the tabernacle into my possession so that I could transform it into a contemplative Art Object. Next, we will relax and meditate during the fifteen-minute visual and musical presentation that the tabernacle experience provides. We will wait five minutes in silence to reflect upon the experience and then share our experiences in an open discussion group.
The second half of our session will take us back to a primal setting to experience a Shamanic Drum Circle. I will explain the basics of this experience and provide the ritual dedication to the four directions and the above and below. I will drum at around 120 beats per minute which will synch our energies with the natural resonance of the earth. 🌎 I will drum for 20 minutes. We will sit in silence again for five minutes to process our experience then have another open discussion group.
