What if working with the land and art could create peace?

 

For many years I have had a vision. The vision has been more of an intense feeling, a knowing of a place of peace. Over the years I have tried to quantify it. It has never happened, something just hasn’t fitted with the feeling. It just hasn’t been right.

 

As with many people I / we have spent much time through the pandemic meditating on the situation we are in and our future, our freedoms or lack of. I have spent much time managing fear and trying not to fall into it’s traps, not always succeeding. We have seen division and polarity in our society. Through it all, I held onto the concept of love and peace and the belief that I need to bring all my knowledge together as one into ‘a place of peace’. The more fear I felt, the more love and peace I should radiate to help bring about balance.

 

In July 2021, I had a vision of the Cathedral of the Trees, a place of peace, of reflection, or reimagining, of change and of commitment. A place of pilgrimage.

The Cathedral

 

The true nature of the cathedral I am working on privately at the moment informed through observation, meditation and inner knowing. It will be a slow to mature project that will take many years to become fully formed just like the trees that will be part of it. It is what David Nash describes as a ‘coming work’, meaning a work that develops and comes into itself over time.

 

Cathedral of the Trees connects us back to the land through the old ways and ancestral paths (past) enables humankind time and space to share, re-imagine & reflect on peace (present) and to manifest change for the generations to come (future).

​

Cathedral of the Trees needs:

 

Guardians of trees, peace makers & imagineers.
