isle of shift
“isle of Shift” is an artistic project inspired by Rick Carson‘s book Taming Your Gremlin. The book explores the concept of inner Gremlins, symbolic representations of our inner demons, and offers strategies for taming them to achieve a more fulfilling life. Carson, a psychologist, encourages readers to confront these internal adversaries as part of a healing process.
My work delves into the themes of self-healing and societal-healing, posing questions about the Gremlins we have created both individually and collectively. Through the creation of cushions representing these Gremlins, the project invites contemplation on personal and societal challenges. It serves as a call to introspection and act-ion, emphasizing that meaningful change can only occur when we confront the need for
transformation.
