WELCOME TO

WORLD
FOUNDING

Bringing the unseen…

We find ourselves thrown into worlds, co-produced but not of our own making and through which we must find our way. These worlds shape us, constrain us and provide for the array of available possibilities. We are born, we die, we fail and succeed and take all the most momentous turns within those worlds; most often without realising the greatest collaborative achievement of our lives is keeping these worlds intact. 

In fact, many of us, do not even see the world we inhabit. Sure, we abide by its rules, complain about it, become outraged when others breach what we think is fair, but most often, we do not see it: we do not see ourselves. One of the great contributions of art is to show us ourselves and the worlds we inhabit and co-produce. In this way, the artists’ work discloses a glimpse into our being-in-a-world.  

However, artists offer a great deal more than showing the unseen. The craft of an artist, beyond the compilation of technical skills, rests in creating, or the bringing to light, that which is otherwise unseen.  This is potentially the most significant gift on offer to humanity right now. Their craft embodies how we bring the unseen to light.

This process, bringing what might be into being what is, is the essence of World Founding. And this is where artists can show us how our way of being together in world can bring those hidden possibilities to light and so reshape the home of humanity’s destiny. 

…into the light

World founding allows you to live in the way an artist does when in the full creative flight of their work, it allows you to contribute to creating originary experiences of the world in which you live. World founding is a mode of creating that understands we are always relational beings and so recognises that any creative activity arises through relationship and success is always communal. It infuses living with a charge that illuminates further possibilities. This is an invitation for us to engage collectively, consciously in the creative imaginative space that is our birth right to bring forth worlds that are rich, sustainable and humane homes for our destiny. 

 The World Founding modus vivendi involves us in teaching, learning, and exploring the ways in which both individuals and groups can unearth the possibilities of authentic living. We draw on philosophy, creative practice, figurative play and the work of originary thinkers to support, collaborate with those who are interested in projects that are inherently authentic.

If you find yourself curious and drawn towards World Founding, please read our blogs, follow us on social media and join us in our workshops. If you want to pitch a project, feel free to email and let us know what you’re thinking. If you know of other groups, or individuals, who are working towards more authentic ways of being, please feel free to connect us.
