Continuum has informed my artistry in a myriad of ways throughout my adult life. Since I am involved in multiple art forms and somatic and healing practices, the fluid resonance, depth of creativity, divine mystery, bio-intelligent perception and connection that Continuum evokes and provides is essential to all areas of my life, health and art forms.
The basic principles and practices of Continuum act as a fluid through line of movement, sound, breath, spiraled impulses, deeper awareness and greater somatic perception and waves of sensation that are unique and yet available to all life form. Continuum sparks creativity and curiosity as well as fosters a kind of nutritive field that is very supportive and connective to an ever present unfolding life process.
