Next Poiesis Symposium VIII:
Monday, January 31st, 2022
Planet in Crisis: Ecopoiesis: The Earth is Calling to Us–How Shall We Respond?
Poiesis arises in response to a call that is made to us. What is the Earth calling to us now and how can we answer this call? In this symposium, we will be guided by the presenters to listen and to find our own aesthetic response. In the large group and in breakout rooms, we will use poetry, movement, visual art and other media to explore our own ways of being and acting in the current planetary crisis. We hope you will join us for this exciting event.
Co-host: Ellen G. Levine, Steven K. Levine and Jose Miguel Calderon
