SPECIAL ENGAGEMENT AT ESALEN INSTITUTE IN BIG SUR, CA
Friday thru Sunday, Sept. 19-21, 2008
THE ART OF NON-VIOLENT WOODTURNING
Learn the discipline of carving wood on a lathe, turning lamps, weed-pots, bowls, and plates—while simultaneously discovering more about yourself. In this workshop, Jerry Kermode will assist you in using breath, posture, and attitude to change fear into curiosity. Gain an understanding of how the fibers lie within the wood and how the chisel slices those fibers, as you learn to make utilitarian items in which the spirit of the wood and your own spirit commingle. The final project is turning a bowl: create your own vessel, a symbol of both holding and releasing.
Nonviolent woodturning is all of the above—not making the cut, but allowing the cut to be made. Let your spirit soar with the shavings, all in the Art Barn at the edge of the Pacific.
