The Feast Table of Love: An Intentional Creativity Story

Based on a True Story - The Feast Table of Love is a re-imagined story of an experience Intentional Creativity Founder, Shiloh Sophia, had with her teacher Sue Hoya Sellars when she was in her early twenties. The young artist comes to the Elder teacher to learn about making art. The teacher does more than just teach her how to make art, rather she offers and approach to making art that begins to change the consciousness of the student. When the student sees the amazing table that her teacher has made she asks to hear the story, and the teacher begins to tell her how the table is made and all that goes into the making of a table. How the teacher tells the story touches on deeply moving topics like how the artist interacts with hunger, and violence and our dreams for a better world. This way of working sparks the student to begin a look at her own art-based activism and what kind of art she wants to make. The story is a sharing of the experience of how Intentional Creativity shapes the creations, as well as the the one creating. The second part of the book shares a 'herstory' of the original table, as well as the roots of Intentional Creativity and the movement this approach to creating catalyzed. This is inspired by one of the original experiences that have shaped a global movement.125 pages, 16 pt. font, 10+ Illustrations 7 photos
