About Creative Presencing
“Opening and standing before The Field of emergence itself, of primal generativity, has been likened to the raw condition of the artist standing before a blank canvas, the writer staring into the electric void of page one, the musician diving into the effervescent silence that precedes each unwritten song.”
During the lockdown of 2020, a small crew of creatives with a common interest in sense-making, art-making, and world-making spontaneously gathered and began prototyping a practice of deep inquiry.
Modeled on Ria Baeck’s Collective Presencing process and further developed by Nick Shore, Natasza Zurek, and Maja Apolonia Rodé, Creative Presencing integrates deep shared inquiry with creative sensing and expression. We utilize our capacities of inner vision and symbolic perception to draw insight and inspiration from The Field dancing in space between us.
In Creative Presencing sessions:
We collectively attune to the “space between” and dialogue about a central question.
We dialogue through words, as well as art, music, poetry, etc. Artistic expressions are inspired by what comes through in the dialogue, and vice versa.
We begin each session with a poetic dice roll to generate the guiding question. We then go where we are led by “the Field” with authenticity, curiosity, and creativity.
Creative Presencing was started by artists for artists of all kinds. We believe that everyone who desires to has the capacity to intuit subtle messages from the great Mystery and translate them through creative expression. In so doing, we commune with the very source of creation and develop our individual and collective capacities to co-create a kinder, more beautiful world.
In Creative Presencing sessions we all learn together as we feel into the majesty and generativity of The Field between us.
Our Creative Inquiry
Each session is like a creative gym where we tune in together and into The Field as we exercise our creative sensing organs.
The guiding question for each session begins the same way:
What does The Field want us to know about ________?
The blank is filled in by a roll of the poetic dice — naming a unique facet of a more beautiful world that beckons us to co-create it into being.
After each session, participants are invited to share their expressions in The Creative Centre hosted on SacredGround.us (membership is free). All members of Sacred Ground are welcome to join in with comments and further responses, reflections, or expressions on the topic.
