THE DESERTED SCHOOL

Transcendental Series
From the Source of Being

From the Source of Being is a day-long retreat part of the Transcendental Series presented by The Deserted School where artists will join Óscar Mascareñas to collectively inquire into the creative process. 

 

The sessions during the day aim to open up exploratory avenues and interrogations into the process of creation based on observation and attention. Through un-doing and observing, participants will inquiry into the limitations of a mind that has been conditioned by education, industry and society. 

 

Echoing legendary Zen scholar D. T. Suzuki, artists will come together to learn ‘by getting to the source of being from which everything making up our daily experience ensues’.

 

From the Source of Being is an invitation for artists from all disciplines to be and inquire together.
