Show Notes
Welcome to "The Art of Reconnection," a new podcast series produced by the Spring Creek Project, an initiative of the Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts at Oregon State University. The series was created in collaboration with The Arts Center in Corvallis, Oregon.
During this four-part series, place-based artists Lee Running and Daniela Naomi Molnar invite us to imagine ways of restoring our relationship to the land. Their artistic practices have helped them hold grief and love, anger and forgiveness, reverence and wonder. By creating art from a place—working with pigments ground from ancient rock or piecing together the precious bones of animals killed on roadsides—these artists are exploring ways to rekindle sacred connection to the land and the more-than-human beings who live there.
Through conversations with each other and invited guests, hosts Lee and Daniela invite us to slow down, look deeply, and explore how places that hold the scars of human impacts not only carry the memory of loss but also the steadfastness of deep, geological time and the possibility of healing.
