CONTEXTThe method "Visual Sensemaking" is based on Theory U, a powerful framework for fostering transformational change by accessing deeper levels of awareness and intuition. It invites us to listen deeply to ourselves, others, and the world around us, and to embody the future we want to create.PROCESSParticipants will go through a mini U-Process to<ul><li>see and sense into their current context</li><li>practice presencing – allowing inner knowing to emerge</li><li>crystalize a future wanting to emerge.</li></ul>The primary mediums for this exploration will be drawing and collage. Participants will engage a system mapping tool to define their current state and then be led through “Visual Presencing”, a core social art, to evolve the map. This brings mindfulness into the mark-making process, and helps embody and externalize potential by accessing an intangible, but felt, field of possibility.There will be ample space for reflection, so that each participant finds perspective through their own image. Each person will also identify specific ways to “stay with” their future as it unfolds.PARTICIPATIONNo drawing experience required! All are welcome. If you are not able to use physical drawing tools for any reason, please let the faculty know, so that a parallel visualized experience might be substituted.
