This episode may interest you if you find yourself at a crossroads wanting to understand better how both can exist within you...the human and the Spirit being. How you can combine multipassions. You will also love this episode if you have heard of the thoughtleader and Artist Olek. Agata Olek emerges as a visionary artist, weaving the fabric of reality through their craft. Their creations serve as portals to higher understanding, reflecting the world's truths in intricate crochet and woven patterns. As they embark on a quest for personal truth, their art becomes a meditative practice and a form of activism, challenging societal norms and expanding perceptions. Through this spiritual journey, Olek invites us to discover the transcendent potential within ourselves, guiding us towards a deeper connection with the essence of our collective reality. Their crocheted artwork has been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, such as the Brooklyn Museum, Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Urban Nation Museum in Germany, to name a few. Their work has also been featured in various publications, including The New York Times, Vogue, and CNN. Olek is the recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Han Nefken award, and a grant from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council.
