Listen to the full discussion: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patron-series-w-58480644 Learn more about Candace’s work: https://www.candacejensen.com Artist, writer, and spiritual ecologist Candace Jensen joins me for this installment of the Patron Appreciation Series. We discuss her Gaia Illuminations, and the artistic representation, and deconstruction, of language and the written word. We dig into her spiritual and philosophical approach to art, in particular calligraphy, including how anarcho-primitivism and animism has influenced the purpose and direction of her work. Candace Jensen is an interdisciplinary visual artist, writer, printmaker, calligrapher and activist committed to realizing a culture profoundly informed by deep ecology. Jensen uses hand-made inks, gold leaf, print and painting media to create her Gaia Illuminations and visual essays, which expand calligraphic illumination’s traditional cultural reliquary beyond that of anthropocentrism. Greatly influenced by Lovelock's Gaia Theory and interdependence principles, her work asserts through mythic and symbolic language that Earth herself is worthy of the gilded, decorated Capital.
