Join me on 9th Feb
Community, the Hero’s Journey & Neurodiversity as an Artist
Dearest community,
I’m very late in putting out this message, so in short, if you were planning to join me for my big Preview at my studio tomorrow (2nd Feb), please know that due to a houseful of illness, I am moving it to Sun 9th Feb. I can’t wait to see you there, and thanks so much for your understanding and support! 💗🙏
The Artist and the Hero
It’s an interesting and ancient human phenomenon that when we are putting ourselves out there in some new way that we go through a whole version of the Hero’s Journey.
You all know it well I’m sure.
So as I’ve silently battled multiple challenges over the past month in order to put on this first showing of my brand new immersive art pieces, I sucked it up and dug into all my resilient pieces of body, mind and spirit.
It’s only when I look back now that I realise THIS particular hero’s journey really was asking me to ask for help. Because when I’m challenged, and when my immediate support falls away (as husband got sick), I resolved to do it all on my own and be proud of that, dammit!
Have you ever found yourself in this solitary hustle mode?
And then at the 11th hour the kids and I fell sick too, and I realised, I can’t do it all on my own. And this world needs LESS of this solitary hustle energy and MUCH MUCH MORE of the opposite.
The Neurospicy Issue
As a neurodiverse being very happy with being solitary, I struggle with keeping and maintaining relationships, and especially community. It’s something I desperately want to be good at - not as a means to an end but because I genuinely believe it’s what the word needs more of, especially in our current climate.
All this to say, I’m processing what all of this means and where I go from here, and I suppose this is also a bit of a muddled way to ask:
Do you feel any of this too?
You’re Invited!
I’m also SO proud of what I’ve managed to achieve alone this year and I cannot WAIT for you to experience these first pieces and get your honest feedback!
So, Sun 9th Feb, 12-4 is the new Preview show time - please let me know if you’re excited to come along and bring your friends!
Biggest of love,
Zoë 💗
SPECIAL PREVIEW: “Fabric of the Universe” immersive energy landscapes by Zoë K.M. Foster.
Enjoy an exclusive interactive experience of the first 3 large installation pieces from Zoë’s “Fabric of the Universe” series!
On show are her unique works “Portal”, “Transcendence” and “Meditation Landscape 1”. You will have the opportunity to walk through, around, and to lie underneath these works of art, and in doing so you are invited to meditate on their themes in your own life, as well as what they mean for our collective future.
Awakening to and beginning to embody our multidimensional presence is how we embrace our luminescent vision of tomorrow 💗.
