UC Clermont Presents 'Discover the Power of Creative Immersion' Lecture
The UC Clermont College Arts Advisory Council is presenting a lecture by author Anne Paris on Wednesday, May 11, from 3- 4:30 p.m. in the Snyder Building, Room 142. The lecture: "Discover the Power of Creative Immersion: A Lecture-Discussion for Anyone Who Likes to Create" is free and open to the community.
Paris will be discussing her book entitled
Standing at Water's Edge: Moving Past Fear, Blocks, and Pitfalls to Discover the Power of Creative Immersion.
The book and lecture offer a fresh approach to understanding the creative process.
Paris is a clinical psychologist who has practiced psychotherapy with artists for over 20 years. The intimacy of these psychotherapy relationships has helped her understand the inner world of artists, writers, actors, dancers, designers and musicians as they create works of art.
Through thousands of hours of psychotherapy, she has identified artists' fundamental psychological needs during the creative process. Until now, this dimension of psychological experience during creativity has gone unnoticed or has been misunderstood. She has concluded that the artist is helped along in the creative process by certain kinds of emotional support that provides the strength and hope needed to enter into and sustain creativity.
