In this riveting episode of Creatively Free with the legendary photographer and mixed media artist Warwick Saint, we explore living in the questions and discovering innovation at the creative edge - and how truly great art is an expression of divinity that is hard to define but is truly timeless. You don’t want to miss this, its electric!
As a painter, award-winning photographer, and mixed media artist from South Africa, Saint has reimagined the role of lighting in film shoots with his adaptive techniques. Brands such as Nike, Puma, and Diesel have published global campaigns using Saint’s unaltered images, and he has shot album covers for icons such as Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys, Missy Elliot, JLo, and Whitney Houston, as well as countless iconic celebrity portraits and campaigns.
In 2018, Saint moved beyond traditional photography and began exploring his work through painting—an inquiry into beauty, identity, celebrity, and the resulting psychological complexities of self-perception in our time. Saint's new creative process, which he calls "Lumadynamic Decomposition," is the result of challenging his own photography.

In this week's episode of Creatively Free, Ariel offers a meditation that invites acceptance, release and restoration to our original DNA blueprint of existing physical body ailments and distortions.
Its commonly perceived that if we have a distorted expression of our DNA or are sick that is out of our hands, and yet, on a regular basis people reverse cancers, tumors and more. While there are no guarantees of changing our health, we can work with what is present.
While the body may take time to restore, we can encourage its health through consciousness and influence our own thoughts and actions to care for it. Return to your power and possibility by opening to new ways.

In this episode Ariel discusses the issues that arise with the old world paradigm of creating a “gap” from our existing state to what we want to move towards in both our personal lives and organizational settings. It often creates fear and suffering that is not necessarily needed or useful for the world we want to create.
As a collective, we can transform the suffering gap to presence and pleasure in the future with a loose hold on expectations and a strengthening sense of purpose, devotion and familiarity with discomfort in uncertainty.
