“Creativity has been tied to divinity since the ancient Greeks called upon the muses to grace them with their sacred wind, yet there has been a modern tendency for artists to shrink from personal declarations of faith. We want to dive right into this idea of faith and explore how spirituality and art are inextricably linked. On each episode, we dive into each guests unique spiritual upbringing and how they uniquely channel the divine/the muse/the universal spirit/the whatever-they-may-call-it in their own life and art.”
