Over the years, I have spent much time organizing, intentionally deepening a mission of sorts in constellating. the vivid grove gathers together - art practice, learning, research, prayer, justice work, really subtle and sensing practices, on so many levels. Curation then is not only from the perspective of aesthetics as a visual expression but rather more in Gregory Bateson's understanding and so many others, that the aesthetics are an expression of the underlying patterns that connect. Curating experiences, curating conditions so that people can have experiences of growth, of incubation, and yes, wonder. Bringing together heterogenous and resonant doings to sit in the unknown together, often fueld by an hunch, a felt sense, a collective desire, and the unknown itself.
