Within/Without: Awareness and the Practice of Seeing

University of South Carolina, maryrobinson{at}sc.edu

My practice seeks to give visual expression to the experience of an inner world as it relates to the outer world. This experience has been explored through parallel practices of contemplation, including art making, meditation, and yoga asana. In this article, I describe art making as recording the experience of movement through space and time. I explore the themes of impermanence and interdependence as they have surfaced through contemplation. I also briefly discuss ethical implications and social responsibility as they relate to the notions of impermanence and interdependence.

Key Words: art • contemplative practice • experience • impermanence • interdependence • observation • perception • subatomic
