OTTAWA BASED SCULPTOR HILDE PAZ WOULD LIKE THE MEDIA TO CONSIDER HER SCULPTURE, 'A HEALING GESTURE', AS AN IMPORTANT VISUAL MESSAGE TO THE CURRENT MAD COW CRISIS

Hilde Paz   
 A  healing Gesture  1996


Creating out of the spirit is an exciting opportunity to work directly with Hilde Paz. With many years of experience in the visual arts, she has designed a sculpture workshop that connects you with the artist and the wisdom hidden within your self. In this workshop you will be introduced to a creative method that enables you to enter with ease into the spirit of creating. It is not a formula, but a way of listening with your heart and allowing your hands to become extensions of this ‘supersensible organ’. Your hands will feel the ebb and flow of what lives beneath the surface of the clay. You will learn to communicate by moving with the flow, forming and shaping what needs to be seen and honored. This way of working can be transformational. You will be astonished at how through the clay profound life questions can be explored and answered. It must be remembered that the pain does not go away through Art. The pain and suffering of this world is uplifted.

The clay hears through me
The clay speaks to me
I listen to the clay
The clay receives me
I give it my hands
My soul enters the clay
We meet – Substance and Spirit
          Clay and Person
          Person and Spirit ground
          Spirit Ground and Ego
          Inner Form and Outer Form
          Living Word
                     In me
                     In my hands
                     In to the clay…
