I've been thinking about...sacred spaces

In today's episode of I've been thinking about, I explore the idea of sacred spaces. Drawing from the famous Virginia Woolf lecture, 'A Room of One's Own'. She wrote, ‘a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction’. Although Woolf was referring to the condition of women in the 1900s, their invisibility, the misrepresentation of women in fiction and their desire for freedom and self-determination. Nonetheless, it’s something that people refer to often as a space that belongs to the artist, a dedicated, private, personal, specific space.

I talk about my space and I ask some of my artist friends to share their spaces. But why the word 'sacred?' Creation is a generative act. Where ideas are 'birthed' into the world - I unpack this idea further and its connection to sacredness.
