“Each one of us, as we age, encounters death in increasingly intimate ways. Six years ago I endured a heart attack — an acute and dangerous event that was a powerful psychological and spiritual encounter with my mortality. Prior to the attack I had a number of dreams, which only in retrospect did I realize predicted exactly what occurred. Several dreams post attack deepened my understanding of the meaning of the event, which provided an opportunity for a healing of my deepest wound. While recuperating I painted these images that arose from the depths. One day, while I was sitting with paintbrush in hand, the thought came that I would give a presentation based on my experiences. And then I heard a voice say, ‘Title the presentation, Brush, With Death.’
“In this presentation I will discuss this fateful and numinous encounter, how I worked with this experience of the living psyche, its implications for both my life and death, and the healing function of illness. I will examine how one person, engaged with the unconscious, works with deep and fateful inner material. Finally, I will open the discussion so that we may reflect on the experience and meaning of these matters in all of our lives.”
