Art and Ascension

Host Nancy Wait talks about Transform/ Transmute/ and Transcend today on Art & Ascension -  http://nancywait.com/2011/04/08/transform-transmute-transcend/ with a personal story about transmuting emotional states into paintings. Why “art” and ascension? Because art takes us to another plane both as creators and observers. Whatever the discipline, art involves body, mind, heart and soul. To create art is to transmute denser matter, lower thought-forms, onto the higher planes of love/wisdom, compassion and understanding. Through the imagination we move into dimensions of lesser density and lighter fields of awareness where we access the intuitive plane. Works of art “step down” higher states of awareness onto the physical plane. Art might be considered as the portal into the World of Meaning and Significance. “Art is what we call the thing an artist does. It's not the medium or the oil or the price or whether it hangs on a wall or you eat it. What matters, what makes it art, is that the person who made it overcame the resistance, ignored the voice of doubt and made something worth making. Something risky. Something human. Art is not in the eye of the beholder. It's in the soul of the artist.” Seth Godin
