“Your talk opened up a whole new way of relating and approaching the symbols that have been coming to me” ​​​

"I absolutely loved everything about it and found the way you structured the evening incredibly considered, moving and thought provoking. The way you combined the personal and the referential struck the perfect balance" 

​​​

 

“Thank you for inspiring me to become “whole” and embrace an alchemical dance of my psyche’s opposites.” 

​​​

"I can’t tell you how much you have helped open up my artistic practice as well as my Self.

Truly enriching in many, many ways"

​​​

"You have such a gift for conveying this deep material. I love the combination of images, quotes, insights…"

 

“Much like the alchemy you research, your lecture beautifully blended the theory with historical imagery and your own practice . . . it was enlightening both in its content and your methodology.“
