Hello,

My name is Leo Krukowski. I am an artist. Thank you for inviting me to speak with your group today.

My goal today is to find something useful in my life or art practice that I can share with you.

This page will stay up for some time after our session.

Ask me anything.

THEMES

  • ART AS MYSTICISM (An adventure. Discovery. Sharing. Treasure.)

  • ART AS A NATURAL LONG-TERM PROCESS (You are the sea carving a stone, or a lightning strike making glass. Art can make sense to you, me, cave people, and space people. Process-oriented.)

  • ART AS A POSSIBLE BYPRODUCT OF A MEANINGFUL LIFE (Healing. Expressing. Curiosity. Storytelling. Objects of contemplation, veneration, prayer, healing.)

  • BEING SKILFUL (Confidence. Being formidable. Fluency with your environment. Being useful. Embodied knowledge. Learning to learn.)

EXERCISE

Our exercise is to draw, paint, or otherwise record the event depicted in this video. Our goal is to depict the candle as it burns down rather than to depict what it inspire in us - our interpretation is a material or method, not a subject.
