Illustrated Journal

"The role of the artist is to ask questions, not answer them."

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov

Through this journal, we are inviting you into a new way of thinking and doing, one which begins with questioning everything we take for granted.

In particular, how we contribute – or think we contribute – to a better world. We will not have all the answers, but we want to ask better questions.

Practise the Art of Listening

“The seemingly simple act of listening to the environment often leads to unexpected complexities of thoughts, sensations and emotions that are not quantifiable or measurable. When we listen… we simultaneously take in the current conditions of the acoustic environment and those of our innermost sound world, our thoughts and emotions. [This] is both highly personal and at the same time universal. It is here where the real journey of listening starts.” — Hildegard Westercamp
